I'm happy to grant that individual parts of modular systems in JS-land are better than batteries-included frameworks like Rails
But there is rarely any mention in the discussion around the trade-offs of:
- not having passive-aggressive power struggles between developers with ambiguously authority on a team about what the tooling should be
- the ability to carry over framework knowledge across teams, projects, and jobs
- that Rails is intentionally an extractive framework (core pieces are extracted from battle-tested apps, not designed from scratch)
- the collective benefit of performance and security updates

In 2024 the fastest, most productive way to build a CRUD web application is Ruby on Rails. People choose it for pragmatic reasons. Examples: @GetLago (YC S21, $22 M funding), @UbicloudHQ (Ruby on Roda, YC W24, $16M funding), Craftwork (S23, $10M ), @rootlyhq (YC S21, $15M),

Return-to-office mandates might be a mistake.
4-year study of S&P500: when firms required people to come in, profits failed to climb—while job satisfaction & work-life balance fell.
If you want people onsite, don't treat them like toddlers. Make the trip worth their time.
