    > Start hopping on rails, enjoy life and see everything going by for the circus it is I thought this might be a quote from the movie Trainspotting (1996). Seems to have a similar spirit to some of the things from that movie.

    I made a lot of money off of Rails but finally switched to Clojure because of the gem pain. So many gems are C or system wrappers and require very specific versions of Ruby and whatever underlying libraries are called. That's fine on brand new dev projects, but it leads to a lot of unexpected web searches when it's time to ship code or return to a project you haven't touched in 6 months. Pinning your gems helps with some of this but every time it popped up I thought ugh...here we go again. Eventually that pain made me look for a better way. One of the oft-undersold features of Clojure is the culture is more careful with breaking changes.
