This is the stuff marketing campaigns are made from.
Eh, like Jacob said later, I don't think this is a totally fair
comparison cuz I'm a world class D expert but a RoR n00b, so
there's naturally some difference in speed there.
Of course, I doubt the gap will ever be closed, since Ruby's
awfulness isn't dependent on my experience level. It's not like
it will ever get static typing even if I used it all the time.
It won't get faster. ActiveRecord won't get sane.
But still, one person's productivity is too subjective to focus
a lot on IMO.
Calculated dishonesty is healthy in a marketing campaign :p
