On Rails, Ruby and the CLR

Rob Conery has an excellent post about Imploding Rails, which manage to hit a lot of my own thoughts about Rails.

I believe that I have stated it before, I am thrilled by what is going on there, but I don't see a good reason to move, since all the nice stuff are either already here or can be brought here. And yes, that include the Ruby's magic.

James Avery has a broader look at this, which I agree to, but doesn't negate's Rob's points.

Rob's comment on James' post had me LOLing:

Ruby is slow, I need to write an extension for it in C.
Great, now you have two problems.
