I'm one of the weirdos who actually appreciated Zed Shaw's outrageousness back in the heyday of Rails, until everyone decided he was toxic and he jumped ship for... whatever the hell he is doing these days, Python maybe? He wrote the Mongrel webserver using the Ragel parser-generator which succeeded by sticking strictly to the HTTP spec unlike apparently everything else at the time. I also thought he was funny: > He sarcastically stated in November 2016 that "Python 3 is not Turing complete" due to claims from Python project developers that Python 2 code cannot be made to run in the Python 3 VM. Oh come on, that is hilarious. DHH is full of himself, but who wouldn't be, if they singlehandedly developed a world-changing webserver API?
