I also chuckled when reading this very post, but some of the others seemed more or less reasonable. The site is useful, because it turns to the opposite side of the goodness of the ruby world and does it with ironically emotional charge. I liked it.

Uh, Twitter?
I left twitter out because it has started departing a bit from pure Ruby on Rails and has had scaling issues from the get go so isn't a really good example when someone is bitching about the abilities of RoR.

Twitter's front-end is still Rails.

#8The problems with rails are pretty much universal to frameworks. Frameworks make it easy to do what the framework makes it easy to do, but eventually you end up paying back all that time you saved early on by fighting the framework later when you outgrow it.

#10Some of it's true some of it's not. It doesn't really matter one way or another because this site is useless. Spend more time hacking in a framework that you do enjoy instead of bitching about the ones you don't.
