Ya'll seem to think "Choose Mature Technology" would result in the same amount of discussion and upvotes on hacker news.

Not quite. "Mature" doesn't describe what the article and the GP said, and what seems to happen on practice.

It's even biased the wrong way, tech does become outdated at some point and best avoided, but "mature" only increases with time.

Erlang is a Mature Technology, and fits Pt 1 - 2 but not Pt 3.
