Each language comes with its advantages and disadvantages but for 90+% of websites the language doesn't really matter.If there's any envy, it's on the RoR side. I don't see other programming languages taking shots at others.That said, I'll learn RoR at some point, but probably only to put it on my resume. Thank you for posting, Rails Envy gentleman.

I frown on your “commercials” because I don’t see a point to them. Each language comes with its advantages and disadvantages but for 90+% of websites the language doesn’t really matter.

If there’s any envy, it’s on the RoR side. I don’t see other programming languages taking shots at others.

That said, I’ll learn RoR at some point, but probably only to put it on my resume.

I think you were way too lenient on the rails envy guys and commercials, though... They're way worse than pathetic.
