RubyOnRails y el piano vs el violin!

Extraje esto de un articulo que hablaba de Ruby on Rails, me parecio muy interesante como comparaba ambas cosas.

Fuente original

Violinist Itzhak Perlman has described the difference between the
violin and the piano in these terms – not that one is easy and the
other difficult, over the long haul, but specifically that the piano,
unlike the violin, gets out of your way. Says Perlman:

Violinists have a harder time to make pure music than pianists,
because pianists … are immediately forced to turn the phrase. They
don’t have to deal with vibrato, they don’t have to deal with shifting,
they don’t have to deal with sliding, they don’t have to deal with
bow-speed …. [On the piano,] basically you put down the key and you
get a sound…. You have to deal with music immediately.

In this light, the piano emerges as the Ruby or Rails of the musical instrument kingdom

Perlman characterizes the low entry barrier as a responsibility:
pianists can’t postpone their responsibility to produce beautiful
music, because they don’t have the excuse of mechanical difficulty with
the instrument. (That’s not to say it’s easy to play the piano well,
but only that you can literally drop a book on a piano and get
something. You can’t do that with a violin.)

Hay algo de cierto en esto no?
