Why are ruby devs looked down upon by pythonists?
Especially the non-web, non-rails community of ruby..
What holds in the future between ruby2 and python3?

- z3phyr 14y agoLook at the forums and stuff.. They seem to speak of python as kings and ruby as a second class citizen...
- stray 14y agoBecause ruby sucks -- just kidding... I didn't know python devs even had much of an opinion about the ruby folks.
- sailfrog 14y agoBecause python devs look down on everybody :)
- mosesschwartz 14y agoRuby's image to the programming public is inextricably linked to Rails, and so to web development, and making fun of web developers is a time-honored tradition among people who fancy themselves "Real Programmers." Outside of this (friendly?) rivarly, I think even the most obstinate Pythonista has to recognize that Ruby is a perfectly capable language for non-web development.
