alt Hacker NewsAny good reason for your rude tone? If we are going to invoke the what crossed somebody's mind trope, I'd lead with that when talking to you -- did it cross your mind to speak calmly and not assume something "did not cross" somebody's mind?
RE: your other similarly rude comment, I have not "appealed to authority" anywhere. I said that I have used multiple PLs / runtimes and made an informed choice... for me. I don't intend to add "...for me" after each sentence. It's redundant and obviously implied when it comes to tech because obviously people have made well-working prod systems with combinations of bash and Perl ages ago. So obviously people can make nearly everything work.
If you don't intend to discuss out of position of curiosity but want to jump on people then I am not interested.
Your first comment assumed I was "speed-running to a conclusion and squinting too hard", and this was "similar to the weird childish name-calling". I think that is in the same area(or worse) than saying "Amazing how X didn't even cross your mind". And sorry, but invoking that you have experience with X, Y, Z and thus your opinion is informed after criticizing some technology IS an appeal to authority.

I'm not the one making sweeping statements on the superiority of one piece of technology. Reading your other response, I think you are the one who have little to no curiosity in understanding how you might be wrong.
