Why can't python be as elegant as ruby?

Python is javascript 6 with forced indentation.

>whitespace syntax
trash

Every time I read this board I become more and more aware of how few of you sad fucks are actually employed

oh, now you gonna come to try to lie about how much python is used on engineering jobs outside google. We use C, C++ , C#, Java, R, javascript even Visual Basic.

I'm sad about this as well. It's a shame Python is winning in the scriptlang world when Ruby is so much comfier.

what its a shame is that monkeys gives a lot of credit to python on CS when the hard work its done by C++, C and Fortran tons of pajeets things tensorflow or opencv is done in python.

People know but they don't care. They use the best tool for the job. This happens to be Python.

The burden of proof lies with one making the claim. Stupid cuck making the other ruby cucks looking good for not having you in their team.

Ruby would be good if everyone wasn't so focused on creating yet another bullshit alternative syntax that you need to memorize for doing something as basic as setting a few fields in an object.
Optional parentheses were a mistake.

Both Python and Ruby are horrible.

When will we have a scripting language to rule them all ?

>not using javascript for everything.

why

Ruby is for mentally ill faggots

then why do I use javascript?

Aussie here, Python is used in every major tech company I consult for. Ruby? Never heard of it outside amateur web development groups

The guy fucked up. He should have just told them to discuss politics elsewhere.
The way he responded just gave them more material to work with.

Ruby : Python :: Japanese tourist : Dutch tourist

And yet it powers GitHub.
Our best chance is Crystal evolving a type-safe Rails clone.

>cuck haha cuck cuck
The only person who looks stupid here is you.

>telling people to fuck off without giving them access to destroy your project is just giving them more material to work with
sure, you spineless morally relativistic faggot

>telling people to fuck off without giving them access
That's what suggested.
But he didn't do that. He taunted them by inviting them to contribute and then saying that they couldn't do a good enough job even if they wanted to.

>you are basically saying that opinions gain worth with merit
every fucking time

they're called meme lines///

Ruby would probably be bigger if it wasn't for Rails. See "Rails is a Ghetto"

I'm going to start learning programming with Ruby

Dubs confirm, this, there's a github repo about eloquent ruby or tips and tricks and it pretty much ilustrates how ruby is able to shine

what is this ruby bullshit

lmao we're (you) are winning, apparently

I prefer Elixir because it is more functional, is compiled, superb concurrency and gives better warnings, while also running on the incredibly robust Erlang VM.

wren-o is bueno

Currently learning ruby on codeacademy.

How much harder is it to jump across to python afterwards?

My main goal is to automate small things. Related:

yo wassup faggot
been using python for the past few weeks for some data analysis
chose it because i have professional freedom and i cannot stand R

Not hard at all.

just do what needs to get done
if you don't like what you're working with, try something new
if you're happy, keep going
that's literally it

Cool.

Unless you use HiPE, which kind of sucks, Elixir is compiled to byte code and then interpreted.

'cause Python users aren't fags.

Come on, Google used Python, and it's faggier than Apple.

crystal is super fun to program in

creme?

not hard but you'll miss blocks and procs

slow compiler time
windows support never came

Still faster than Scala, at least.
