    you’re wrong. none of the points in the article say anything at all. the pillars that hold up the lies are

    • ruby is bad because python/js good
    • matz is good but DHH is bad and so ruby is bad
    • Twitter failed 14 years ago because ruby is bad and so ruby is still bad
    • ruby is bad because it’s old
    • ruby bad because it’s not used as much as python/js

    Sheon Han worked at Twitter. doubtful he was there between the 2011-2014 rewrite. I also doubt that he’s done much of anything with ruby since he was fired from Twitter after Musk destroyed it. especially so since he’s taken up freelance writing since 2021.

    Sheon Han is attempting to stay relevant by desperately attacking a language he barely uses and hasn’t touched seriously since at least 2021.

    you’re better off ignoring him and “journalists” like him.
