As a currently unemployed developer I take this advice everyday but it really hasn&#x27;t generated any results (and it really shouldn&#x27;t be at my current experience level).<p>I&#x27;ve heard countless times from other developers that they would be happy to hire a competent programmer with no familiarity with their stack because it&#x27;s better than waiting 6 months to find a dev with the preferred experience. I&#x27;ve never seen or heard about this in practice.
