Perhaps that's because the kind of person who has this kind of attitude, and who'd create an account called "tddfuckwitz" to come and spout it on HN, doesn't make a very good impression on the kind of rails devs who do know what they're doing, so you don't win them as clients.
- signed, a professional rails dev who takes security and code quality very seriously indeed
- tddfuckwitz 11y agoCute - inserting the word 'professional' before rails dev, and then claiming to take security and code quality seriously! ROFL If a developer was professional, and cared about code quality and security, they would not use rails. Period.

- tddfuckwitz 11y agoHey - your account is much older, all that time and still unable to say anything of value. What a tragedy!
- evilduck 11y agoHope you have a great day.
- dang 11y agoPlease don't feed trolls with attention. Instead, flag them by clicking on a comment's timestamp to go to its page, then clicking "flag" at the top.
- evilduck 11y agoI did.
- astrodust 11y agoYeah! They'd use PHP! Or Java! Those never have any problems and their code-bases are always flawless. I'll take a bad Rails app any day over what people churn out in other platforms. I've seen Java apps so impenetrably opaque it's not even clear what it does. Rails is Rails. It's boring. It works. It's pretty hard to mangle the project so badly that you can't make sense of it. Unless, of course, you've got no idea what Rails is or how it works.
- tddfuckwitz 11y agoThe replacements in modern php were faster and more secure. But don't let your prejudice undo your argument.
- astrodust 11y agoWhat "replacements" are you talking about here? Laravel has tried to push PHP in the right direction in a huge way, but it's not without its minor problems, either. Additionally, like any non-trivial code base it's had some vulnerabilities. Now of course nobody uses Laravel, they just hand-roll, so the sorts of bugs you see in the PHP world are more pattern based (e.g. injection, XSS) than you'd see in a platform like Rails that is driven by convention.
