[melbourne-pug] Fwd: Re: Upcoming Django conference in Asia Pacific

[Andrew Thornton]

No. Not when there are other equally good web application frameworks on this planet. Honestly Mike. Try to see more of this universe than the Django ecosystem. Ruby on rails can't be THAT bad. If a clown like me can set up a ROR web application framework then I am sure that you could. 

As for going, no thanks. The vast majority of geeks are well on the way to autistic/aspergers on the spectrum. I would rather spend my free time with normal, balanced people rather than command-line nuts. I have better things to do with 100000 hours than spend it scripting. I actually have a life. 

I also know that there is this thing called an alphabet. It starts with A...and ends with Z. Most geeks can't read. They have spent their time doing C instead. Take that Andrew Tridgell for instance. Great programmer. Has about the alphabetical literacy level of a cabbage. 

I might find an improv drama group. But conferences? Please. Don't drive me nuts at the thought. I have no real interest in hanging around techno-neanderthals to whom the French Revolution never happened because it's not a C or python script.
