It continually shocks me how much whining developers do about sometimes having to learn new things. The requirements for continued education are shockingly low (read: non-existent) in our industry, compared to other, similar intellectual/white collar industries - doctors in California are legally required to do 50 hours of CME/2 years, lawyers in California are legally required to do 25 hours of CLE/3 years, and those are both fairly standard. There are a tremendous amount of jobs out there that won't require you to learn anything new, ever, if you don't want to (think of how many thousand brain-dead Java jobs are out there). There are plenty more that will require you to learn one or two new things (any of the hundreds of consultancies and companies that picked a fairly standardized stack and work with it all the time). And then there is a tiny subset of companies that are actively working with new tech and trying new things, and a tiny subset of people actually using all of those new things. Whining about how "it's too complicated!" because someone somewhere provided you with some new programming tools for free because they thought those tools were useful and cool is an ugly look for a profession that's so prone to patting itself on the back while loudly proclaiming how forward-thinking it is.
