I dream of a day when building a website, mobile app, desktop app in Ruby is not only possible, but is wicked awesome.
In reply to:@headius Yes! A million times yes! :D
In reply to:@headius I (and I would hope most people who love Ruby) want Ruby being fast enough to do all of the things we need to do without C etc.
In reply to:@headius That's what I was getting at (maybe poorly) too.
In reply to:@headius In the case of some C Extension in Ruby/Rubinius/JRuby, we are definitely leaning on C to make Ruby fast.
In reply to:@merbist My point was that this "Learn C" mantra is a straw man.
In reply to:@mitchellh I meant that we should get Ruby to where we don't have to lean on C or Java to make go fast.
In reply to:@mitchellh "Good enough" was probably a bad choice of words.
In reply to:@merbist Well, sure. Obviously. I think we hold the goal of pushing Ruby further though.
In reply to:@joedamato How very clever of you.
In reply to:@elight I'm saying, let's get Ruby to the metal too. :D
In reply to:@merbist @steveklabnik How about everyone just learns all of the languages?
In reply to:@steveklabnik I think the school of "Rubyists Should Learn C" generally translates to "… so you can write CEXTs when Ruby is too slow."
In reply to:@steveklabnik So is Assembly, right?
In reply to:Hey devs, if you don't want to have to rely on C, make Ruby good enough to not need it.
