These people who refer to them selves as a "Rails Engineer" (or substitute any other language/framework) and fail to realize that there are other tools in the box are of course first against the wall in the AI-driven future.
A carpenter who only knows how to use a hammer isn't a very good carpenter.
Why is Rails a hammer not Milwaukee/DeWalt/Makita/etc? A carpenter with only DeWalt brand power tools will do just fine.
Not if the job provides only Makita.
And before you say "a carpenter can switch from DeWalt to Makita just fine": that's why the analogy was made with a hammer.
