Ruby programming

Ever run GitLab? It's the most bloated piece of shit ever. Avoid Ruby, even more bloated than Java
Adam Morgan
how is it bloated tho>
Luke Hall
Its virtual machine allocs every bit of memory on your server
Isaiah Nguyen
Java is literally the best language tho
Jayden Thompson
Ruby is a fine language. And it's C interface makes it really easy to write low level libraries for apps.
Carson Lee
JS happened
Grayson Harris
Good morning, sir.
Jaxon Clark
I said java, not javascript
Jace Brown
The syntax is beautiful, they just need to improve the performance of the implementation.
Kevin Hill
Ruby is max comfy but kind of useless.
>Gems have shit support
>Took the TMTOWTDT Perl philosophy way too fucking far
>Interpreter doesn't have terribly robust optimization paths
>No Cython equivalent for precompiled speed bonuses
It's really fun to use and in the right circumstances can save a ton of time, but it's just unfortunately a slow and poorly supported language.
Michael Anderson
GOOD MORNING SIR!
Nathaniel Perez
Sir please, do not redeem
Landon Foster
it gave us RPG Maker
Nathaniel Watson
OMG SOMEONE REMEMBERS

Metaexploit and RPG Maker are fine, but RoR created the cancerous Sillicon Valley JS framework glitterboy culture so it undermines a lot of its value for me. Also for parroting how much they evolved from le bad Perl they end doing exatcly the same shit but slower, an unreadable mess of custom syntax everywhere. At least Perl is fast for its niche (and honestly not that different from Javascript nowadays) Still not a mystery why Python overthroned both.
Blake Long
Ruby is a toy language, despite its creator claiming all other languages are.
Brandon Green
It was a necessary bootstrap for the startup economy as we know it today. There was a takeoff, it's more important than the collateral damage.
Ian Ross
You are a toy language
Kevin Powell
a. JS wasn't any faster when it made Ruby obsolete.
b. Rails doesn't need any faster language when 90% of the time is spent in database calls
Kevin Long
>Still not a mystery why Python overthroned both.
Because people who have no business programming are shilling it.
