       Why do so many non ruby projects use ruby / rake as the build tool?Like, bash is hard, I get it... but it works really well for gluing ci tasks together and it doesn't need to pull down a bunch of external libs.Builds failing because your project depends on an old ruby version / code / deps isn't better.Running everything through rake for a ruby project make sense, sure! Otherwise why are you wrapping a totally JS codebase's npm commands in a rakefile? Just because bash can be intimidating doesn't mean that using ruby is the solution.#rant #grrrr #ci #cd #petPeeve

       @mur2501 Maybe but that feels a bit too reductive. I mostly do web dev *and* use linux a lot.
