comp.lang.ruby

Another milestone for Ruby!

Jeremy Henty

From the Jifty home page, <URL:http://jifty.org/view/Ho...:

Jifty is written in Perl. If you're familiar with Ruby, Perl might
feel like Ruby's quirky big brother.

You know you've arrived when people try to describe Perl by comparing
it to you!

Cheers,

Jeremy Henty

Holy crap. No kidding.

That's a surprisingly appropriate random signature block I've got this
time, too.

This corresponds to "Do not trust Perl mongers - even if they say your
programming language is superior to Perl." while the right description
were "Do not trust Perl mongers - ESPECIALLY if they say your
programming language is superior to Perl."

Besides that: We have enough holy wars these days. Christians/Muslims,
Jews/Muslims, Debian/<insert commercial distribution here>,
Sustainable Development/Maximization of Profit, Freedom/Security, ...

Where my concept of "holy war" is that all sides involved think they
have the one and only answer to a question.

In Soviet Russia, Perl is compared to you!
