Off-topic: You'll be disappointed to learn that I also use an 18-pt font in my editor. I happen to like big readable text, maybe something to do with my age and my prescription being -5.5. P.S. the font-size is actually 1.5rem

I guess you missed the part of my article about auto-scaling and restarts. The Rails app from my day job takes several seconds to come up, causing queuing and slow performance for our users. There are work arounds (idle instances, warmup re

I found the ability to define a method on a slice/array to be less verbose than the equivalent inherit/delegation setup in Ruby, though I can't speak for Python. http://nathany.com/good I can't imagine a more concise syntax for automatic

Thanks for reading my article. It is my opinion that Go is fun, but it's just that, an opinion. I'm glad we have the diversity in programming languages that allows us to pick what we like (esp. when it comes to the server). Best.

The communication is improving and Matz is onboard. I was really happy to see the IRC logs from December 10th. At least people are talking. As mruby gains traction, people will want to know the differences between mruby and MRI. I think it'

Sorry. That's some poor organization of the writing on my part, which I've revised slightly. My article is still leaning heavily on Brian Ford's talk for the reasons why the current (lack of) process is an issue that needs consideration. I

That's an interesting find. I hope the failure in 2003-2008 doesn't predetermine the outcome of such an effort in 2012, assuming such an effort does takes place.
