I'm doing a phone interview tomorrow with the lead tech guy and he, and I quote: "wants to make sure that your strategies align more with Ruby best practices as opposed to a more traditionally .NET approach." Now, what exactly does that mean? From my experience, Ruby developers have piss poor practices, but I really wonder Ruby brings to the table in terms of practices that are somehow different from "traditional" .NET approaches. All I can think of is leveraging features like mixins that promote bad OO practices. Anyone have a clue? More generally, would you say that [Java / C / PHP / F# / etc.] has best practices that distinguish it from "traditional .NET" development? Marc

Surely it doesn't matter if your strategies come from Ruby, .NET or Mars. If you can write clean, well designed and structured code that meets or exceeds the client's expectations, then it's irrelevant. If I came across that statement from the "lead" tech for a job interview, I'd seriously question their credentials.

Hmmm. My reply to this went straight to the queue. :rolleyes:

Quite simply it means nothing! I have worked businesses where a number of people use business jargon and nothing else - apart from finding it highly irritating it quite simply is a means of obscuring their lack of knowledge in an area while trying to sound impressive. Best practice - whatever gets the job done making future maintenance as straightforward as possible, in other words doing what you are paid to do.

I am guessing he is either: - talking about building up classes using Ruby's strengths and understanding how to apply duck typing in the best ways, or - talking out of his arse.

Not sure. Perhaps the filter confused the word 'duck' with something else ;)

Unless I'm employing someone to create strategies, they can keep their strategies at home -- that's as "aligned" as they need to be.

Nope. He wants continuous, built-in testing. Ignore this at your peril.

May I translate: We are the Borg. You will be assimilated. Your existence as you know it is over and you will adapt to service us. Resistance is futile. Or even simpler: We want to go sure that any crap we have produced, be it as unconventional as it wants, will be adopted by you as best practice. If you have the option: Run as fast and as far you can.

I think this statement is a preemptive strike from the the interviewer. What he really is trying to say is - If you try to outsmart me with your knowledge, i'll throw in a "this is not how its done in Ruby" trump card and save my ego.

This reminds me of a an old story. Once an interviewer told me - "I want to know whether you understand the difference between VB and .Net properly" and surprisingly it was in 2008 so he was not talking about VB6, He was talking about VB.NET. And I was like :omg:
