@KirinDave c'est la vie. One option is to develop on MRI and deploy on JRuby like @Square does (and I used to at previous gigs)
@KirinDave if you saw my rant Tuesday night, I am not a fan of Go. I will write a blog post about why soon

@bascule I am not a huge fan of Go, but it's a good step and a good example. -
@KirinDave I think Go has helped popularize some good ideas, however at the same time it's a lousy implementation -
@bascule The implementation is lousy? Like the compiler and runtime? -
@KirinDave most notably the garbage collector

@bascule Also, hybrid object-function programming is the future and Ruby does not lean far enough. -
@KirinDave on the contrary, I think Ruby does a great job combining functional concepts with OOP -
@bascule If you think that, you don't understand functional programming. It's a lot more than functors. -
@KirinDave this is another topic better answered in a blog post than a tweet -
@bascule Actually it's incredibly simple. Ruby has very minimal functional programming support. -
@KirinDave I'd say it does a better job than, say, Python... see also: https://github.com/harukizaemon/hamster … -
@bascule Python is way worse. So what? -
@KirinDave I gotta get some work done here bro ;) I will gracefully bow out... - 2 more replies
