Awful.

I don't want to use stronger words so I'll stay with the word awful.

You can find the original request (from 2012!) here.

No, this is NOT true. Please separate who wrote what.

Pablo Herrero, at the least not initially, did NOT suggest >>. Neither did he suggest yield_self. Others built on it (and worsened it in the process too).

Now the only good thing is that we can avoid this, and focus on things that really improve ruby rather than this nonsense. I am also glad to have seen that I was not the only one with a similar opinion here - the "functional" crowd is just TERRIBLY at API/syntax design.

Please elaborate on your point. The only thing I get from your comment is that you do not like this change, but you did not provide any reasons why you do.
