I used to program in Perl and moved to Python. Perl like Ruby has lots of syntactic sugar, and while you can do "cooler" things in Perl, I write far better (more readable, more reliable), if a little more verbose code in Python.
Whenever I have inherited some Ruby code to debug, it's got way too much fancy syntax that I don't understand.
Thanks for writing, Victor! I'd love to read an extended version on those "things you're not a big fan of", with possibly "...and how I wish they were"
