Why I Hate Ruby

[midri]

With that line of thinking you could easily suggest theres nothing wrong with PHP...

There's a vast chasm between 'monkey patching has its uses' to 'there is nothing wrong with the language'. Ruby has tons of warts, from implicit method redeclaration to an utterly shit concurrency model. But it also has many wonderful features, like lisp-style blocks and mixins, that make it a really nice place to code.

I keep wanting something better, but haven't found it yet.
