But when you choose a language, you're also choosing a community. The programmers you'll be able to hire to work on a Java project won't be as smart as the ones you could get to work on a project written in Python. [2] And the quality of your hackers probably matters more than the language you choose. Though, frankly, the fact that good hackers prefer Python to Java should tell you something about the relative merits of those languages. </p>[...]<br> </blockquote> [<a href="http://lemonodor.com/">Lemonodor</a>]<br> </blockquote> <br> As someone who quite likes Java and isn't quite so keen on Python I guess i'm one of the less smart programmers around.

The idea is for Rails and Django folks to come together over beer and share ideas and perspectives. There'll likely be more Pythonistas so I hope they won't mind if the Rubyites bring water pistols (just kidding!)</p> http://matt.blogs.it/entries/00002854.html l.m. hacks RSS and Atom while you wait Wed, 14 Sep 2005 08:19:54 +0100 <p>l.m.orchard has <a href="http://www.decafbad.com/blog/2005/09/13/hacking-rss-and-atom-is-out">written a book about hacking RSS and Atom</a>. I'm doing a lot of stuff with RSS parsing at the moment (right now I'm experimenting with <a href="http://tech.rufy.com/entry/83">Lucas Carlson's</a> excellent <a href="http://simple-rss.rubyforge.org/">SimpleRSS parser</a>) so I might go pick up a copy, even if he does use Python ;-)</p> http://matt.blogs.it/entries/00002901.html
