With all due respect, as someone that’s probably downvoted everything you’ve said on this thread, my reasons for doing so have nothing to do with your language preferences. Your comments are needlessly impassioned and vitriolic. I am not even remotely interested in the type of religious war discussion you are trying to foster.
I can honestly say with complete confidence that I’d feel this way regardless of what language you were talking about.
In addition to this though, as someone that writes Python / Django professionally and has done so for some time, my familiarity with the language gives me the necessarily insight to see where your experience is limited. I’ve seen a few inarguable factual inaccuracies (i.e. not based on opinion) in what you’ve said in a few comments. It seems obvious that when you engage with Python and Django you aren’t doing so all that willingly. But honestly your strength in your convictions puts me off getting into a back and forth with you to reach a shared understanding. The confidence with which you’re writing feels a bit misplaced.
Your overuse of hyperbole makes it hard to tell what you actually believe and what you’d genuinely argue for in a real-life professional context rather than behind a screen name on an Internet forum, so even if I wanted to engage in a back and forth I wouldn’t even know where to meet you.
This is a classic example of the loudest and most impassioned voices framing themselves as winning because people just don’t want to engage.
This is all to say before writing off downvoters are upset people on “the other team” which are lesser than you, consider the possibility that you’re probably throwing your weight around a bit too much and are creating an environment that’s generally unpleasant. I’ve enjoyed the tech community largely moving away from the “us vs them” mentality. Truth be told, none of this shit matters enough to warrant that sort of mentality. I feel like I’ve stepped back in time reading your comments. Not only are they unenjoyable to read, but I am not an iota more enlightened about the comparative benefits of Ruby vs Python. So I ask you…what’s actually your intention in commenting in the first place? The truthful answer to that question is why I’ll continue to downvote.
