I know Ruby != Rails but the example wasn’t mine. It was from the paragraph I quoted from the post, which conflates the two. It may be true in Python--I don’t

I know Ruby != Rails but the example wasn’t mine. It was from the paragraph I quoted from the post, which conflates the two. It may be true in Python--I don’t use it much--but I know Ruby well. It was my primary language for 13 years, at multiple companies. I taught it to over a thousand engineers at Airbnb over the course of five years. I still disagree that it is common to use exceptions for control flow. Maybe it’s a matter of the interpretation of the word “common.” ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
