What About Rails?

I always appreciate when someone is paying attention and doesn’t just buy everything as presented. Since I listened to DHH a bit on recent podcast appearances, I don’t think I have to review the talk transcript to know that DHH is a, IMO, on a promotional tour for whatever he currently does and/or recently did. And boy, is he fired up about anything and everything.

Bottom line: DHH is presenting one side of the spectrum. He has a huge platform. I don’t see him being concerned with the Rails community, the software engineering craft as a whole, or anything but what he does and cares about. His activism is closely tied to his own agenda.
