I know the point is somewhat pedantic, but I just don't really like to learn from people who doesn't even know what is what. Somewhat invalidates the article IMO, but I read it anyway, just with very carefully, trying not to learn anything just understanding the basic idea he/she want to tell. I think they downvote because they are so ignorant I can't even believe it.

Perhaps they are downvoting because of your own ignorance? The aforementioned code does depend on ActiveSupport (or similar library), but has absolutely nothing to do with Rails.

  Thanks for explaining!

class Walkman < Troll def comment self.ignorance += 1 end end Pretty sure that's standard ruby.

  Please be civil regardless of the behavior of other users.

    That was more civil than outright calling multiple users ignorant. Instead, I acknowledged demonstrated ignorance by cheekily posting a valid ruby class definition.
