Rails is a Ghetto
Zed Shaw, a former big time Rails dev, is leaving the community. He has a scathing rant of the community as a whole as well as ThoughtWorks. I must say that some of Zed's stories sound really familiar to when I was doing a lot of consulting work. There are a hell of a lot of bad customers out there that want you devote your life to thier projects, make them a ton of money, and not pay you back for your work. More often than not, it's because they don't really have any money to spend and they are simply trying to get rich quick off of some really bad idea, or some really poor execution of a fairly good idea.
