On the shiny new things

On HackerNews, someone asked why the news release of Django receives less fanfare than say Rails and this is my favorite comment

I'm probably going to offend some people with my phrasing, but the Django community is a little less culty/fanboyish than Node's. It's old enough where most of the shiny chasers have moved on (to Node), leaving the guys who are more worried about productivity than figuring out what is new/hot.
