Is the Ruby community... nicer?

Reading time: ~1 min ❓Shorter than a Rails console boot time

Our favorite programming guru, Martin Fowler has written a post on his bliki about Ruby People

From my years of working in the open source community, I have not seen a community so friendly and so cultured (meaning, we come from PHP, Java, .NET, Perl, Python, etc.) The elitism is minimal in the Ruby community… we all just want to have fun and write elegant code. :-)

Do you find the Ruby community friendlier?

Hi, I'm Robby.

I run Planet Argon, where we help organizations keep their Ruby on Rails apps maintainable—so they don't have to start over. I created Oh My Zsh to make developers more efficient and host both the On Rails and Maintainable.fm podcasts to explore what it takes to build software that lasts.
