I don't think that a language that is too complex for "mass developers" is necessarily a good test for finding better developers. That assumes that better developers flock to more complex languages.

First Knight is not a terrible movie.
This looks interesting. It reminds me of book that explained the details behind dealing with unix processes using ruby. I really liked it: http://www.jstorimer.com/products/working-with-unix-processe...
The philosophy behind this looks similar to a library created by a co-worker of mine that we use extensively internally:

I feel like the sentiment portrayed in these posters could apply to almost anyone in any profession that happens to be feeling a little undervalued. This is not unique to design. More importantly, there is very little in useful advice. Disappointing this made it to the front page.
Has anyone looked at Pyke (http://pyke.sourceforge.net/)? It seems to combine some of the ideas from Prolog with the ability to use Python when necessary. We tried it and found it to work as advertised but the documentation was hard to navigate.
