I'm doing some Ruby for work and I hate it with passion every time i have to touch it.
Official tutorial-style documentation for Ruby is largely non-existstant (except for a book from 2002 that teaches outdated stuff from ruby 1.3). Learning ruby is 99% monkey learning, as in reading some random tutorial off the web and then doing some monkey-see-monkey-do. It's awful and it's frustrating.
Python on the other hand is extremely well documented:
* Tutorial: https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/index.html https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/index.html
* Standard library reference: https://docs.python.org/3/library/index.html https://docs.python.org/3/library/index.html
* Language reference: https://docs.python.org/3/reference/index.html https://docs.python.org/3/reference/index.html
Guess which language is thriving and which is slowly losing relevance?
