The Sleeping Dragon Has Awoken, And Is Filled With A Terrible Resolve

Title is way too dramatic.<p>Short version: some app creation tool group hired a few people.

I wasn&#x27;t sure what RubyMotion was. If you are also wondering, here&#x27;s what Wikipedia [1] has to say:<p>&gt; <i>RubyMotion is an IDE of the Ruby programming language that runs on iOS, OS X and Android. RubyMotion is an open-sourced commercial product created by Laurent Sansonetti for HipByte and is based on MacRuby for OS X. RubyMotion adapted and extended MacRuby to work on platforms beyond OS X.</i><p>&gt; <i>RubyMotion apps execute in an iOS simulator alongside a read-eval-print loop (REPL) for interactive inspection and modification. 3rd-party Objective-C libraries can be included in a RubyMotion project, either manually or by using a package manager such as CocoaPods. Programs are statically compiled into machine code by use of Rake as its build and execution tool.</i><p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;RubyMotion" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;RubyMotion</a>

Title was great, article was great news. Y’all grouchy HN types need to lighten up and allow some fun.<p>As a Rubyist, this is exciting. Language I use is getting an improved LLVM compiler. Better tools that put native, non-Cordova mobile app development within my reach.

The title is comically grandiose as far as I can tell. Which isn&#x27;t easy b&#x2F;c the text is rather verbose, and far too inside-basebally.<p>I was expecting some license changes or similar to be hidden between the lines. But it appears RubyMotion was commercial even before?

Reading the title I was sure that China did something, and now all our base are belong to them.<p>&quot;We are something Ruby related, and we did something with our business structure&quot; was a real letdown.
