Joel v. Ruby
I stopped reading Joel Spolsky a year or so ago simply because he's a blowhard. Any slight good in an article was undoubtedly surrounded by moderate to heavy non-good or out-and-out dogma. It's good to see someone take the time to call him out on his ramblings against Ruby. The closing quote shows just what you get when you mix arrogance with malicious deceit.
