Python is simpler than Go for web. There is a reason for why
Go is still not in production on App Engine, you end up with
more convoluted code as far as I can tell. Faster, yep.
Only because developers don't reach for PyPy and Cython as much
as they should, rather re-writing everything from scratch and
they stating how they are impressed by Go.
thank god i'm not the only one who thinks like that. rob pike
mentioned that there are much more conversion of python / ruby
developers than c / c++ developers. and as we all know the
reason is the speed and there's a trade off. they're trading
beauty, elegance, simplicity with ugly speed. i also think many
go users are caught NIH syndrome. they are re-inventing
everything. heck, they are even re-inventing nginx, redis, etc.
because they are _not written_ in go.
on ruby on rails side, it is fairly very easy. i've built apps
with rails and i've always been happy with it. some apps used
rails defaults, some apps were very customised. the thing with
ror is that it is never getting in your way when you open up your
editor and start building your application and that's what i look
for in a web framework.
