Funny enough, one commenter on this article advocated Rails:

"I don't want to start yet another religious war, but for a nice respite from the complexities of J2EE frameworks, check out Ruby on Rails. I'm playing with it now and it is a pleasure to work with."

I was actually surprised to see this is from 2005 too...

It was frameworks like the ones Joel was railing against that inspired Rails.

A framework should help you do your job, not get in the way.
