The tech stack used. When they're still doing LAMP in 2015, never. Or PHP in general. But that's just me I'd say

Ouch. We're still using PHP but appreciate what you're saying. What tech stack are you using at the moment?

(Elixir/Phoenix || Node.js/Meteor || Ruby/Rails) && (Angular.js, React, Homegrown JS frontend stuff), as well as desktop stuff with JS (my "lib": https://github.com/Anonyfox/node-webkit-hipster-seed ) from time to time. Actually I'm fluent in many languages so the concrete choice doesn't matter really as long as it is suitable for the given problem. But today there is no question where the answer would be PHP. Especially when the future is "soft" realtime, distributed and high performant or for tiny devices, problems you can't throw more hardware/caches at.
