It is crap like this that makes Ruby developers and advocates look a like a bunch of Art School wannabe cool kids. I don’t really get the point. Using baseless generalizations doesn’t make your point, it just makes you look like you are trying to be smarter than you actually are.

I like Ruby, I like Java too, even on a crazy day I even like kickin’ it oldskool in C. They are all tools in a toolbox.

The key is to learn which tool to use, not to be the toolbox.
