  • @nifty I have nothing against Ruby and think it’s a nice flexible language. At the peak of RoR though, all the asshats were all over Ruby.

    My problem with Ruby wasn’t even RoR, it was with the way the asshats valued creativity “cleverness” which seemed to mean writing code in the most cryptic ways possible. These folks took what should be an expressive language and wrote scripts that rivaled Perl’s worst “read once and never again” scripts.

    Because we know how well Trump talked about and regarded the troops.

    Are these fools too stupid to look at the latest bills supporting vets and how republicans voted?

    It’s mind blowing how republicans are able to convince people to vote against their own self interests so voraciously.

    Many republicans, I think it’s most personally, think republicans are trash. They think they themselves are trash.

    If you are in the military and know you are trash; think most of your comrades are trash; think most humans are trash, then why wouldn’t you support the overthrow of the government?

    Trump isn’t insulting these people when he insults the troops. He’s saying what they already believe about themselves.

    It’s hard to discuss zipper merging because people use to justify all sorts of dick behavior. Zipping through an empty left turn only lane to skip to the head of a right turn only lane for example. That’s not an example of zipper merging but there’s tons of people who I’ve seen argue that’s acceptable behavior.
