Where is Ruby Headed in 2021?

Magic requires memorization.

Memorization is not consistent between teams/team-members.

Memorization is also the fastest skillset folks lose if they step away from the language/toolset for a while (it degrades rapidly)

Worst of all - The RoR ecosystem (6 versions in) requires memorization about which set of things you need to have memorized for this specific version of the framework.

I'll take some boilerplate code EVERY FUCKING TIME. The magic becomes a curse.

What framework are you using then? Rails is pretty intuitive and easy...I am biased yes but nothing I saw from Spring or Django made me think they made more sense than Rails. The whole Bean thing is pretty crazy. Django is an over engineerd Rails from what I saw.
