    You can add activesupport (I think that’s it) to get it if you don’t want to use all of rails.

    That's what I end up seeing for most ruby only scripts. It works!

            This implies that integers in ROR are complex objects with properties that would be unhelpful in the majority of scenarios. Is that right?

              Integers are just integers in ruby, with no structure backing them. They behave like objects, but only in some respects. You can call methods on them, but you can't extend individual numbers with properties for example (which would require them to have structure).

                The handful of us have moved onto Crystal Lang. It's a statically type checked and compiled dialect of Ruby. Crystal is fun to write code, but the compiler is slower (compared to go-lang/rust)... because... well it's a ruby dialect (with DSL's)... and the 3rd party libraries are limited.

                  I'm gonna be honest, I never was drawn to python. I've been a professional developer for about a decade, and I've written all of one (1) python programs that I can remember (for my own personal use, mind).

                            The Python won't give an accurate date here because it doesn't take into account leap years.

                              I had a coworker choose RoR for a major project despite the fact that he didn't know it, nobody on his team knew it, nobody at our company knew it, and nobody in the entire state knew it. It ended as one would expect, after three years and millions of dollars spent, with the only revenue it generated being $50K from the original client that had to be refunded to avoid a lawsuit.

                                    Besides Crystal, a lot of people went to Elixir and Phoenix as well

                                      What you can achieve in a couple of pages of Python can be pretty spectacular. It's also mostly very easy-to-read, with the possible exception of class inheritance, which is confusing mess.

                                      If you need to write more than a couple of pages, then its lack of types becomes a hindrance to me - doing refactors when functions can take basically any arguments is quite painful, for instance. Not requiring any particular structure is great, up until you start to struggle with lack of structure.

                                      Ideal programming language for when you're wanting to do something that would be a bit too unwieldy for a shell script. It also makes network requests and json parsing very straightforward, so it's great for interacting with REST APIs and writing simple microservices. Fast to write and runs quite quickly, so a good choice for Advent Of Code-like tasks. Would probably choose a different language for larger projects or when working in a team, though.

                                          Fuck that. I once used a constraint solver in python where you could += a constraint to a problem. This is completely un-discoverable. In any sane language you can use IntelliSense to find that you can problem.… add(constraint) and be done with it without ever touching a manual. Overloaded operators are cool, but a menace.

                                          And while I’m ranting: Angular’s new addRouting(), withThingA(), withThingB() is complete horseshit, too. The old way of doing addRouter({ and letting the IDE tell you what you could to with the router was so much clearer!
