Hey all, final question for the market research that my graduate team is doing for new product adoptions. Thank you all for the help you have provided so far, it has been invaluable for our research. I'll publish a link to our industry white paper if anyone is interested (and it doesn't get closed).
So how important are side-by-side comparisons between technologies if you are going to try a new language or development system? Is it something that you absolutely need in order to see the comparative advantages/disadvantages, or simply something that's "nice"? Do they make you more likely to be comfortable trying a new technology or to grasp its usages? Any free-flowing comments are greatly appreciated.
