The intent of the post was to provide information **from a user's perspective** 
with real world code on how to make Nim better _from the user's perspective_.

Why did you make the assumption I didn't compile my code with `--d:release`? I 
did. What I hoped you appreciated was that using fixed numerical values are 
much more performamnt than using `<b` in real code. Maybe you don't care, but I 
hope you would.

Also, it doesn't look (and feel) good for you to speak derisively of Ruby. The 
`..` and `...` idioms in Ruby are logical, consistent, and well documented, and 
do not cause confusion. Whether someone types them correctly is not an issue of 
the idioms.

In fact, I think you could learn a lot from the Ruby community, and how Matz 
(Ruby's creator) has set a tone of being friendly and welcoming
