- emodendroket 8y agoI've done legacy work in both and I'd never choose Ruby over C#. It might be a little faster to write the code the first time around, but maintaining a big legacy project stinks. Also, none of Atwood's reasons is "I don't like working in C#." And several of the concerns in this post are obsolete.
- Roboprog 8y agoActually, I find Ruby code much easier to look at than most Java / C# UglyCapsRunOn word-soup. YMMV.
- emodendroket 8y agoWell who cares about that, really. I'm not talking about how pretty the code is; I'm talking about the ease of maintaining it. Ruby code frequently requires digging through the method and methods it calls to figure out the expected input.
