What do you mean by "we," sir? Are you even from this country? From the likes of your terrible grammar, it appears you can't speak English. Then again, neither can half this country. God damnit!
What is your point here? You're missing the positive side effects from the competition here -- better products for the consumers. Who gives a shit if they're fighting? It's more beneficial to us.
Agreed -- but perhaps the Ruby people should have a disclaimer similar to the one on commercials for diet pills where they show a person losing 70 pounds in a month: "Results not typical."
I think you are missing the point of your parent poster. He is merely pointing out the fact that the video makes it seem like things can be done in 10 minutes; the people "advertising" Ruby on Rails are emphasizing the speed in which one can "bang out" some web app, like a blog. I cannot attest to how easy or hard it is do so, because I have never attempted myself. However, the video does make it look easy, with major catches - namely, learning the actual language, because one does not simply know from birth how to do everything he is doing to make his blog.
You're telling me that I can't actually make $15 million USD by helping out a Nigerian prince escape the country and seek refuge elsewhere? They really had me going! And here I was, thinking that you can't lie on the internet!
It annoyed me how everyone was listed by their last name in the list, except for Malda, who was simply "Slashdot." Look, if you want to bash the editor of this fine website, at least do it properly.
The kind of people who buy these things are willing to let battery acid burn their penis away if it means keeping their uber-cool notebook on their lap.
Most people have this thing called a "filter." Without being too ironic, I think I can safely say that you do not have one. Please stop trying to do whatever it is you're trying to do.
Look, son, I told you, I don't want you posting on Slashdot. People can tell that you're mentally retarded when you try to come up with such silly ideas!
In all seriousness to the excellent gentlemen who insist on calling every new product "X's killer," has anything that has been labelled so ever amounted to anything? Have any of these purported "killers" actually killed? Seriously though, can someone provide a concrete example of this happening?
I suggest we go after the real killers. And have some reforms in the use of the word "killer" in headlines.
If the only thing you like to eat outside of your house is pizza, you are a big fan of drinking, and plan on going to the grocery store often, I guess this is a utopian society. Unfortunately, most people enjoy eating things besides pizza outside of their home, have other activities besides recreational drinking, and enjoy the convenience of having multiple grocery stores nearby. Your "truly advanced society" sounds like a commune.
How is this a prank? Since when is making your own service unrealiable in terms of the information it provides a "prank"? If I make fun of someone on a website, am I pranking them? A prank is when you make someone look like an idiot at THEIR expense, not the person doing the prank.

I believe you are missing the irony.
Although I do not mind your preference of using the "u" in honour, I do take offense to your usage of a single "v" in the word savvy.
I wish there was a "-1, Irony" mod. Read your post.
That's amazing! I've got the same combination on my luggage! Prepare Spaceball 1 for immediate departure! And change the combination on my luggage.
Wow, an obscure Anger Management reference. However, what the hell did it have to do with your parent poster?

Thank you.
Your post is just about as redundant as all the people complaining about how this technology will never come out.

Of course not, because everyone knows that Elvis isn't dead.
USE VERBS IN YOUR HEADLINES! Where is the verb? Star Trek Spoof is Top Finnish Movie! Does this piss anyone else off?

Thank you, Adam Smith.
You could at least give credit where its due.
Back, savage! Stay on kuro5hin!
I'm interested in knowing why you left the "t" from the DOT (.) in "/.ted".
You're an asshole!
Umm, WHAT? If anything, that'd be the anniversary of Y1K... but that's besides the point as a YEAR can't really have an anniversary.
