A lot of times I heard "We should use the right tool for the job!" Most of
|
||
|
those times it was just a way to push an agenda.

When someone claims we should use the "right tool", the sentence mean there is
|
||
|
a right tool and a wrong tool to do something -- e.g., using a certain
|
||
|
language/framework instead of the current language/framework.
|
||
|
|
||
|
But sadly, none of those times it was really the "right tool". Most of the
|
||
|
time, the person saying we should use the "right tool" was trying to push
|
||
|
their own favourite language/framework, either because they disliked the
|
||
|
current language/framework or because they don't want to push the "hero
|
||
|
project".
