Is there an equivalent in Ruby?

Learn to code. Even if you're not going to be the tech guy at your startup, you'll understand the tech guy much better, you'll be able to hire tech guys more effectively, etc.

Just do Learn Python The Hard Way or anything like that related to your field (C if you're doing hardware).

How would you describe the fit of the people to the following ideologies: libertarian, anarcho-capitalist, left-anarchist, socialist?

yawn, another central planner who doesn't grasp basic economics and knows what everybody should be doing. saying that "short term thinking invalidates economics" is like saying that "low gravity invalidates physics" and claiming that we need "a new system of physics on the moon".

what annoys me most is that all of his ideas have been suggested and disproven before, but these kind of people never even do basic research on that, they just assume that their ideas are unique snowflakes that nobody else could ever come up with.

yea, big fail.

Are you suggesting consensus proves anything?

Oh god, this is such a brilliant idea.

IntelliSense knows the library, omnicompletion just autocompletes similar words in the current file.

Great! Finally there's method to the madness of startups.

- higher productivity - better ecosystem - more talent available - code doesn't make people vomit

It's not Rails so much, it's Ruby.
