Can we just conclude that the Ruby/Rails/Whatever community is just a big loose and move on? I mean, really guys...
I have no direct connection to Ruby (thank god). But the lead/prominent people seem super immature and mostly unskilled, and half of every programming news aggregator on earth is filled with ruby/rails-drama every 3 days. Just... "ugh"...
Can we all just use python or lisp and give up on these guys already? Ruby really isn't that great, frankly (reminds me of the worst, not the best, parts of perl, smalltalk and lisp combined).
Maybe I'm being too judgemental anout the language -- but at least invent a new Ruby-derivative called "Muby" :-), and put people in charge who (a) know how to write code and (b) are not drama-seeking children.
- pavelludiq 17y agoFrom the little ruby i know i find it a very nice language, but i too am sick of all the drama. Thats why i mostly try to ignore it. I would love to see more articles about cool ruby hacks, but i get useless rhetoric instead.
- gaius 17y agoYeah it's like there's no RMS, no Linus, no Alan Cox, everyone in the Ruby world is ESR.

- ezy 17y agoWhat else do you think people do on comment threads? Or do you think every shared opinion must be positive? :-) BTW, read the comment again -- I'm not that interested in Ruby, why would I bother? It was just a suggestion after all...
