Hi. My experience lies in Ruby and in JavaScript (these days) so I can see these worlds however close, differently. In Ruby I have all kinds of gimmicks that help with cutting the chase when that's what I want, but I also can make it a little harder when I am interested in something else, in experimenting with some other approach.

What I find a little disgusting is when my "meta-programming" in Ruby starts doing things like when an exception occurs, it points to a line number slightly different than where it really is, or when the backtrace becomes all the more "hacked" with harder to understand things thrown in there. It serves to remind us that there are tradeoffs involved. Also there is the issue creating shareable modules and when you start hacking it away it can make it all the more harder to share. But it's more than fun, it does work, it's just that one can have mixed feelings because for ever cool finding or development, there can exist a little nuisance as well or something that you cannot quite do anymore because you deviated from mainstream...

I gotta go have lunch!

Be well.
