Which is better, and why? Defend your weapon of choice
Why is Ruby so comfy?
Neither, use Aarch64 assembly
Ruby because it's named after a gemstone and not a snake.

Lua, it's faster and named for the moon.
>>57458811
more like hue lmao
>>57458786
Ruby is a better language, but besides Rails there is not much use for it. Python is everywhere.
>>57458811
Seconded this anon, Lua is better
Python for life

Python is bloated crap. Lua is elegant. Metatable class implementation is sexy
>>57458811
Shit, can't argue with that and I do actually prefer Lua. Why didn't I say I'm so stupid STUPID
>>57458889
Name 10 well known organizations using lua? If you think it's so great. None?
>>57458804
Python, snakes are cooler than gemstones
>>57458908
That's one of the least important metrics you could've brought up. Go forth and purge your life force from this planet.

Check mate
>>57458786
Neither. Use node.js
>>57458932
Check what? And I'm no mate of yours, pal.
>>57458889
Nah python is clean if you compare it with other common languages like golang, javascript, php (yes php7 too), and c# (yes c#6 too).
>>57458952
I think he meant to write 'Checkmate'

>Why is Ruby so comfy?
Ruby is designed to make programmers happy. It solves all the small problems so you can focus on the problem you want to solve. You don't need to spend any time writing basic algorithms or modifying your problem so it fits into what the standard library has available. Ruby has you covered. That's why everything has so many methods.

>not using Guile or SBCL
>>57458908
It's great because it has an incredibly low memory footprint and JIT Lua is actually pretty fuckin fast.
It's syntax is dogshit tho
Ruby is pretty shit to setup on Windows.

>>57458786
In my experience Ruby is popular with amatures and Python is almost exclusively for lay people
>>57459071
But those basic problems have been implemented in every language in cross platform libraries
...it's your own fault for choosing to reinvent the wheel for the millionth time
