The article was meant to address transition points from django to rails not start a flamewar. I was never encouraged by anyone to "troll", this is from my personal experiences. There's no conspiracy theory here.
- olifante 17y agoAs a pythonista who likes ruby, I think your "Perl's ugly sister" comments were a shot in the foot and detracted from the rest of your argument, which concentrates on rails and has little to do with Ruby itself.
- berntb 17y agoFrankly, I'm quite used to see this kind of trolling spam about Perl. You could answer by asking after specific problems with "Perl Best Practices" or what can top e.g. Moose, but language wars (+)? I AM able to grow a beard.... This group of scripting languages seems really similar in functionality and usability today (so if I change environment, I'd probably go functional). The large difference seems to be in the cultures around them... (+) I'm all for editor wars, of course! :-)
