For small, single apps sure. But if you have large apps with multiple Ruby versions then dealing with rvmrc, bundler and gem incompatibilities is a nightmare.

Java's forward compatibility is a lot more robust.
- jdminhbg 14y agoYou have an app with multiple Ruby versions?
- taligent 14y agoYes. I take it you've never worked at an enterprise company before ? Every time a new developer comes on board they just love to add new technology X and then in the years to come other developers add Y and so on. Of course there are developers who have to manage this.
- calinet6 14y agoEnterprise company? Ha. Just try dealing with three different decade-old JVM versions once. You'll pray for bundler.
- damoncali 14y agoBut if you have large apps with multiple Ruby versions then dealing with rvmrc... Why on earth would you do that?
- rsyntax 14y agoWhat use case is there for "multiple Ruby versions" within the same app?
