The better question is
“Why would I pointlessly accept this clear case of massive technical debt for literally no reason what-so-ever?”
Rails does not present any sort of promise that go does not also present, so just saying “yeah, I’ll handcuff my app like this cause I feel like using Ruby” is, frankly, absurd.
When you ask the right questions, you never land on Ruby, and that’s why Ruby continues to decline.
- Lio 3y agoIt depends on the metrics you care about. Ruby is concise compared to Go though. I like Go and but when I use it I have to accept that I'll write (and debug) at twice as much code as I would do in Ruby. If you're mostly just loading data into a large fast cache, lines of code may be a more critical dimension than execution speed. That's how well designed Rails projects work and you get most of what you need straight out of the box.
