Does anybody remember reading an article along the line "we use X because it's cool and trending and we are cool people?" Not saying it's the case here, but did anybody honestly admitted in an article that they used a technology because it makes them look cool?

I do remember reading quite a lot of articles about the inverse of this: "we don't hire people using Windows/IDEs/ because it says a lot about them, a craftsman should chose his tools wisely, ...", but never the positive.
