## Please Don't Nerf RubyLang Because #StyleGuides
Ruby has made some internal changes that remind me of the changes #RSpec made to clean up internals but uglified the code & made certain features simply stop working as expected.
Removing `foo rescue nil` is an exmaple. Some edge cases make this antipattern useful; replacing a one-liner with a complex method/chain is annoying. Mindful chainsaw-juggling gave expert #Rubyists superpowers. Not trusting power users is red #Kryptonite for code.

Hey #rubyists and #ruby people! At $DAYJOB, I've been using the #racc and #rexical gems to create a grammar and parser for an internal sql-like query language. I was initially nervous because I didn't have much experience at this type of thing, but it's ended up being a very fun thing to work on. When finished, it will eliminate some years-old code written by some blithering idiot that's been source of odd bugs for a long time, and improve the user experience considerably. #programming

Riddle me this, in Ruby 3.4.2:
```Ruby
a = {
a: 'test' \
'test',
b: 'testing' \
'test',
c: 'test',
d: 'a test',
f: 'test' \
'test'
}a.map { |k,v| v.frozen? }
# => [true, true, false, false, false]

@cedx I think it's a great option for #Rubyists that need some #JS without having to master the whole JS language or one of its many frameworks first. However, transpilers are abstractions, and all abstractions are leaky. Native idioms can sometimes be more optimal, and it can be hard to debug transpiled code if you haven't mastered the target language too.
Choosing #CoffeeScript as a transpiler over native #ECMAscript is therefore a trade-off. There's no canonical right answer.

Come on #rubyists - who else is going to be talking about #RubyWorld on fedi? https://andyp.url.lol/rw2024

#ProTip Never waste an opportunity to rant against language/ecosystem misfeatures! I never tire of complaining about the overuse of #FrozenStringLiterals in #RubyLang, or the over-reliance on community style guides as a stand-in for #codequality instead of using #TDD, intentional semantics, or good variables/comments.
If you don't trust other #Rubyists to understand `[].any? ? complain : shut_up` without an extra 4 lines of if/else bloat in your method, the real problem isn't the ternary!

@vincentritter There are quite a lot of us on ruby.social, as well as fosstodon and hachyderm. Your home instance doesn't matter much, but you'll probably discover more #Rubyists on your local timeline here than anywhere else.
Wherever you are in the fediverse, though, we always need more #RubyLang enthusiasts. "Come to the Dark Side. We have cookies!"

@postmodern People think it's dying because:
1. There are fewer jobs posted for it than years past.
2. The skill level of senior #Rubyists is high enough that fewer questions get asked about it on #StackOverflow than other languages.
3. Median pay for Ruby is still among the highest in the industry, but #payscales top out higher for #datascience & assembly.
Most people don't grok statistics, so they're getting it wrong, but you won't convince them. I agree that it's annoying, though.

Since a lot of #Rubyists use #macOS, I thought I'd ask this on #rubysocial too.
P.S. I wish #mastodon supported "boost with comment" even if I understand why they don't.

Say, what are #Rubyists using for JSON builders in the year 2018? Is there a dry- equivalent?
