Why Ruby Shouldn’t Be Your Next Programming Language (Maybe).
Posted by digg under Cool StuffNo Comments
An interesting view of programming languages.
There are two ways to view programming languages. One way is to view a language as a tool like a hammer or a screwdriver. This view states that programming langauges are tools which help developers perform tasks. Some languages, like SQL or Prolog, are like that oddly shaped tool rattling around in the bottom of your toolbox you bought 5 years ago to work on the CV joints of your cousin’s 1982 Toyota Corolla. These languages are targeted at either one or at most a very small number of problem domains. Like that funny shaped tool they are mostly useless outside of their intended uses.
Other languages, like C, Java, Perl, or Ruby resemble the well-worn screwdriver used for everything from tightening screws to stripping wire. They are not tailored to any specific problem domain. Instead they are applicable to a wide range of problems. Because of their wide applicability general purpose langauges command the majority of developer “mindshare”. That is to say most developers invest more time becoming proficient using general purpose tools compared to specialty tools.

Edit your userChrome.css file to add the code you need, as follows.
Move it to the Bottom
/* Display the tabbar at the bottom */
#content > tabbox { -moz-box-direction: reverse; }
Move it to the Left/Right Sides
/* Display the tabbar on the left */
#content > tabbox {
-moz-box-orient: horizontal;
}
.tabbrowser-strip {
-moz-box-orient: vertical;
/* note: you can set this to -moz-scrollbars-vertical instead,
but then the scrollbar will *always* be visible. this way
there is never a scrollbar, so it behaves like the tab bar
normally does */
overflow: -moz-scrollbars-none;
}
.tabbrowser-tabs {
-moz-box-orient: horizontal;
min-width: 10ex; /* you may want to increase this value */
-mox-box-pack: start;
-moz-box-align: start;
}
.tabbrowser-tabs > hbox {
-moz-box-orient: vertical;
-moz-box-align: stretch;
-moz-box-pack: start;
}
.tabbrowser-tabs > hbox > tab {
-moz-box-align: start;
-moz-box-orient: horizontal;
}
/* remove the close-tab button */
.tabbrowser-tabs > stack {
display: none;
}
If you want to move it to the right, add the following lines to the above:
/* Instead, display the tabbar on the right */
#content > tabbox { -moz-box-direction: reverse; }
