This sort of mythology is NOT helping.

Unfortunately it's partially valid. Job ads in particular are (presumably for a want of some other way to whittle down the pile of incoming resumes) considerably biased towards frameworks and gizmos that have been around 3 years or less.

Yes there are new languages and frameworks we have to learn, but if we apply any effort ...

You'd think a lot of these places assuming we're all utterly incapable of "learning", they way they phrase some of these requirement lists.
