• I’m tired of pointless discussions
• I’m sick of discussions at the absolute clueless level
• I hate with a passion discussions where clueless ppl think they’ve found the solutions everybody else was unable to find before
• code is the final argument in many technical discussions
• I’m seemingly getting increasingly identified with "do the Right Thing", that is, while I recognize the benefits of "worse is better", I do not like to procrastinate the Right solution and/or let others do the work I implicitly assumed when stating my goals (I have no problem with delegating, but I won’t "delegate" to abstract entities like the "community", or worse, "the community at some point in the future"). Therefore, I sometimes won’t release even when my code is objectively better than what’s out there.

 Mar 25 <dblack> to me it's part of the ruby inferiority complex
 Mar 25 <dblack> "let's do what java programmers feel comfortable with"
 Mar 25 <dblack> which is why it bothers me (along with the visual clutter it introduces)
 Mar 25 <batsman> I'm affected by another variant of the ruby (not Ruby) inferiority complex
 Mar 25 <dblack> namely?
 Mar 25 <batsman> I think the implementation is not as good as I'd like it to be :P
 Mar 25 <batsman> there's nothing in the language itself to be ashamed of
 Mar 25 <dblack> yeah
 Mar 25 <batsman> as for making Java programmers feel comfortable -> if that means turning
                  Ruby into some crap syntax, no way

 Mar 25 <batsman> too many discussions, too little code. if only people hacked some more
                  and talked less :P ...
 Mar 25 <phubuh> maybe we should adopt the lisp community's practice of ritually chanting "MORE CODE"
 Mar 25 <phubuh> MORE CODE
 Mar 25 <phubuh> MORE CODE
 Mar 25 <batsman> esp. when the discussions consistently go back to the 'near clueless' level
 Mar 25 * batsman was about to add another line but then he realized it wouldn't be consistent
          w/ "too much discussion" & went back to coding
