An interesting switch is: Django Developer: 1,199 Rails Developer: 3,682

I don't think Ruby, Python, etc will die anytime soon. There are too many small businesses that need products developed fast. PHP on the other hand...

PHP Developer: 10,317 What?! ;)

TIL futuristic 3D-printers will have a 3.5" floppy disk drive and 2 sets of arrow keys on the keyboard.

I can't wait for the future!

OOP is just another tool in my toolbox. It makes a lot of sense for some problems, and none at all for all of the rest.

Hah! This video(From 2m52s to 3m24s) demonstrates my experience with the Metro UI perfectly:

The funny thing is, the pane for Visual Studio is the first one in the second column.

So you're saying that it would be less cluttered with touch input rather than a mouse and keyboard? I guess that makes sense... ;)

I did't say anything about it not working well with a mouse and keyboard. I said I had a hard time organizing things after I installed a lot of applications and widgets. I feel like no matter how much time I spend coloring panes and organizing them, the interface still slows me down. That's why I like using the Windows key and then typing in the application name.

I guess I just need to accept that the Metro UI is not for me, even though I wanted and tried really hard to like it.

After trying out Windows 8 consumer preview for a couple of weeks, I have absolutely no desire to ever use a tablet that has the metro UI/UX. It is wretched.

I'm sure there are some people out there that like it... If you are one of these people, I'd really like to hear your opinion of it. I have a really hard time organizing everything. It always looks cluttered to me. If I did not discovered the feature where you can press the Windows key and start typing to search for applications, I would have reinstalled Windows 7 a long time ago.

If anyone has any tips and/or tweaks that improve the experience, please tell!

You forgot to include these services: character name changes, character race changes, character transfers, guild transfers, vanity pets and mounts. I'm not proud to say that I have spent money on all of these except the guild transfer service.

And then in a couple of months when you have to come back and figure out where that weird bug is hiding, you probably will wish that you spent a little more time writing your code properly. Just because PHP lets you write horrible code doesn't mean you should.

I think RoR and Django are both great frameworks. If you think that Django is too restrictive or inflexible, you are relying too much on the framework and not on your own abilities as a programmer. Django gets you up and running quickly, Python is where the real magic happens.
