this guy is incredibly hostile to the commenters.
if you read the whole thing, many from the Erlang community point out that he skews the benchmarks in favor of Python and then will...not...listen when they try to respectfully suggest changes to his tests. it's quite difficult to read all the way to the end but by the end it makes me proud of the Erlang community for the by-and-large mature and respectful way they deal with aggressive and prejudicial attacks.

- codexon 16y agoI am the author of this article. Do you not think the commenters are the ones being incredibly hostile? Here they are on my blog convinced that I am wrong, and when I don't agree, they start calling me epithets like "naive", "stupid", or labeling it as "funny". Let me give you a selection of some of their latest behavior. - "Then you type some absolutely incoherent stuff about python objects and their state as if anyone still doubted your knowledge level in these matters." - "And to top it off we get to see a raving “I’m never wrong” lunatic on the Internet." - "You’re _such_ a dick" Anyway I don't expect to get a lot of support here since everyone here loves exotic functional languages like Erlang. But I am still not budging from my position.
