Really? Please tell me which of these things: http://webonastick.com/php.html http://webonastick.com/php.html applies to ruby. People have been complaining about javascript being shitty for just as long as javascript has existed.
- pconner 12y agoI don't know enough about Ruby to make any specific criticisms of the language. I just know that Ruby/Rails is being recommend to beginners (through Code Academy). I guess I could have said Python instead, but I don't think Python's web frameworks (Django, Flask, etc) have the market share that Rails does.
- imanaccount247 12y agoSo, you have no basis to support your claim, and admit you do not have the understanding required to make such a claim. Then why did you make it?
- pconner 12y agoI never said people would criticize Ruby because of the language itself. I said that it could POSSIBLY (note that this is pure speculation) get the same stigma as PHP because it draws in a lot of beginners.
- imanaccount247 12y agoAnd my point was that PHP does not get stigma because it attracts beginners. It gets valid criticism because it is horribly broken. That's why I showed you one of the many sites making those criticisms.
