OK, no idea what Godwin's law is but if you look at the deeper meaning of my post which is: Apple needs something like MacRuby as a supported alternative to XCodes C languages. Something that can server as a development environment in its own right and as something that can be integrated into apps as a modern scripting environment.
Maybe speaking the name Visual BASIC detracts from the point but it really shouldn't. For all it's warts VB allows for Quickly developed apps. If nothing else I'm supporting programmer productivity here. Sent from Dave's iPad! On Oct 17, 2011, at 5:55 PM, "Jordan K.
