Nobody's making any points about developers
My gut instinct is that this is incorrect, too, but I don't know enough about surgery to make a compelling argument.
I'd back myself to pick up Ruby (a language I've never touched before) and be productive, more than I'd trust a surgeon who only has experience with heart surgery to operate on my brain. Maybe that's ignorant of me.
- mekkkkkk 6y agoEven if a Ruby bug would mean death? EDIT: I take this back. I missed the point of the argument.
- ceejayoz 6y agoThat'd change the risks, sure. I don't think that's the scenario @jrh206 was talking about, though. Most code written in Ruby doesn't have the sort of immediate risk to life or limb surgeries do.
