This is a hell of a rant against the Rails community by Zed Shaw (creator of Mongrel). It's passionate and angry, so yeah maybe take it with a grain of salt but he does make some solid points, although there is a lot of vitriol pointed towards specific people. It is entertaining though. One point that is troubling about Rails is the revelation of how much restarting Rails servers required when RoR was released: "Let me put this into perspective for you: I?ve ran servers that needed to be restarted once in a year. They were written in PHP, Python, Java, C, C++, you name it. Hell, I?ve got this blog on a server I?ve restarted maybe 10-20 times the whole year. "Now, DHH tells me that he?s got 400 restarts a mother fucking day. That?s 1 restart about ever 4 minutes bitches. These restarts went away after I exposed bugs in the GC and Threads which Mentalguy fixed with fastthread (like a Ninja, Mentalguy is awesome). "If anyone had known Rails was that unstable they would have laughed in his face. Think about it further, this means that the creator of Rails in his flagship products could not keep them running for longer than 4 minutes on average."

Are deer as docile & unthreatening as they (and their fans) want us to believe? Apparently not always. An impassioned & amusing questioning by 1 beleaguered homeowner.

If you haven't heard, Catherine Crier's show has not been renewed by Court TV, so she is leaving the network. But not before getting in a few digs. In a speech to lawyers in Florida, Crier says she is sad to hear that Court TV (which is changing its name, by the way) is no longer going to cover trials on TV.

To borrow a cliche of several years ago, the gigantic sucking sound emanated from Bristol Motor Speedway and the debut of the NASCAR Car of Tomorrow, where Kyle Busch said, basically, even though I won the race, I couldn't stand the car.

Like a child, the dog came with his own idiosyncrasies. He will only sleep on the bed, on top of the covers, nuzzled as close to my face as he can get without actually performing a French kiss on me. Lest you think this is a bad case of no discipline, I should tell you that hubby and I tried every means to break him of this habit including locking

Greg Storey on the ripoff of the day, and the ripoff process in general. We designers really need to band together to do something about this -- it is really hurting our industry. There are way too many hacks in this field, and we need to find a way to educate consumers of design so they don't keep giving business to hacks instead of professionals.
