I've seen a million dollar java project (which started as scala) crash and burn because the team couldn't code its way out of a box. Ruby / Rails, python, php, heck even chef and vagrant setups that made me question my sanity. Crack open the code for most games and you see an unholy mess of c/++. I also know brilliant people who write excellent code in all of those (except maybe python, it's not too popular in my immediate circle). Golang is probably the hardest to tell good from bad since copy-paste is a virtue.

I have long given up on "language choice" as a marker that automatically says anything about a developer at all.
