I don't think this article is as great as a lot of people do. Most of this should be obvious to anyone using ruby, nowadays. It might have been great at the time, but I don't think so much now.
But then again I thought "The Meme Hustler" was rubbish (well, actually, I think the reasoning would have been okay, but I thought the premise was totally, utterly, removed from reality), so I think it's safe to say me and Steve have a different taste in articles.
- steveklabnik 10y agoI don't actually know how I feel about the contents of this article, but it _did_ generate a lot of lively discussion and made a lot of people think. So in that regard, I feel that it's a success.
- qwertyuiop924 10y agoFair 'nuff. That is a major benefit. Steve Yegge's response is way more interesting than the article itself.
