You are the only one talking with you in this thread. Do you really
think that someone else will do your job ? Do it for free ?
Hmm, that’s the third or fifth message I am reading from you today,
and they all were negative and/or rude. You don’t seem to like Ruby or
its community much. Someone asked you, in another thread, if you are a
troll. I believe the question was on target.
Yes, no doubt, i’m not an open source fan.
Which is particularly weird, given that Lothar is the principle of a
company which claims to be developing IDEs for open source scripting
languages (betas expected at end of the year…)!
Open Source is wonderful. It allows folks to focus on the best possible
service they can offer and not on “mine mine mine” concept that children at
the age of 2 get so well. Perhaps that is my new fav analogy of Open Source
vs. Closed Source developers. Open Sourcer’s are compared to children older
then that of 2 who have learned to share, while Closed Source developers can
be compared to children at the age of 2. I wonder what’ll happen when
developers reach adolesence. =)
They will stop programming and focus on the opposite sex.
