Get what you are saying and very much agree with you :-).

I just have some intermediate time now (I'm studying at the moment) before I'll start on another thing and would like to look into some RoR-stuff, since I'm a hooked on it (I need my junk!).

So what should you be able to do in combination with RoR if you want a startup in the Bay Area to jump up and down over your skills?

They won't. Learn how to work with other engineers, designers, product managers, project managers, executives, operations, etc. Learn test-driven development. Learn how to say no to new projects. Learn when to say yes.

I'm studying at Hyper Island (HyperIsland.se), where we spend most of our time trying to learn that.

If you haven't gotten any skills to offer in such a team, you'll probably never get the chance to do so.
