Lame. How old are you, 12? I find it "interesting" that developers of competing software usually get along fine, but for some reason the users feel the need to attack, flame at and troll at each other.


"How old are you, 12?"

I downvoted you for this disrespectful comment. I don't think this is the tone most of Hacker News users want on this site.


Thanks techiferous, though looking at my comment I can understand why it would rub some the wrong way - will try to be more diplomatic in the future.


Not disagreeing with you there. I upvoted you.


Perhaps my remark was a bit snide but I was not attacking or flaming anyone.

It's not like I called the rails team assholes or said rails sucks. I dont think either is the case - Rails pays my bills right now and I love it, but after playing with Padrino for 2 weeks all I can say is that my Rails days are numbered.

These guys really nailed everything - speed, cleanliness and common sense. Superior routing, mountable apps done right and a killer admin app out the box are just a few added perks. Top it off with a DSL that is far more Rubyish than Rails (and source code that is MUCH easier to read) and what's not to love?

Besides, a little friendly competition is GOOD for our community.

Take the proverbial chill pill mate
