Most of the people whining about performance and types probably don't actually use Ruby day to day.

- symfoniq 7y agoAnd Ruby 2.6 is already much, much faster than it was in the days when it was too slow for Twitter. Ruby 3.0 should be much faster still.
- eropple 7y agoI dunno. I used to use a lot of Ruby. The lack of types regularly made my life a real pain. I ended up building frameworks[0] tied really tightly to dry-struct to try to work around that, and it wasn't great. I use TypeScript for everything I used to use Ruby for, save for the occasional file munging inside of `pry`.

- jitl 7y agoThis is pretty much the route I’ve taken, except I used an internal framework at Airbnb for typings instead of “dry-...”. These days I write Typescript. I’m excited for Deno, which looks like it’ll solve most of the Node bullshit.
