Caught between PHP and Ruby
Am I a PHP Developer? Am I a Ruby Developer? How about, I am a Web Developer.
This is something I have been discussing with various co-workers for some time. Learning Rails over the last couple of years, and now finally having more opportunites to use Rails I find that I have taken a similar path that Derek Sivers outlines in this article (http://www.oreillynet.com/ruby/blog/2007/09/7_reasons_i_switched_back_to_p_1.html), but I dont see myself abandoning Rails or PHP. I enjoy working in both and they both have their strengths and weaknesses.
I read something on another blog recently that has stuck with me. It read, “If the only tool in your toolbox is a hammer, everything looks like a nail”.
