Used to do DevOps before they even called it that way: Linux. Python. Perl. Java. Docker. For fun and profit. CTO level generalist working for a mid-sized tech-centric company.

Yes, same experience here. Important to add to the DevOps part, as far as I am concerned: Be critical when it comes to "hype" technologies and never forget that your code, at some point, also needs to run on some production infrastructure. Starting with the stack you know definitely is a good advice but you also should make sure you have an inexpensive and stable solution how to keep your code running on production-level (availability, stability, performance, backups, ...) without having to handle all this on your own. These days you most likely will be looking at public cloud hosting at amazon, google or Microsoft Azure - which might have an impact on which stack you choose.
