The scaffolding and convention over configuration argument just weakened; ChatGPT can set up a new project for you with whatever boilerplate your language needs

  That's not my experience yet. I don't need to fight against a prompt eater that generates tremendous amount of nonsense that it will pretend to apologies about when you start to point every flows present in its output, having to deal with even more large amount of thoughtless suggestions as a result. When you use a scaffolding script from Rails or similar, the result is always consistent, and errors will most likely be coming from the command used than from the fundamental way the script works.

  Let me tell you how much time I spent with Claude and ChatGPT trying to get Next.js and Lucia with Postgres playing nicely. Never got it to work. Then I hit `rails new -d postgresql -j esbuild -c tailwind` and tried authentication-zero. Up and running in ~10 minutes. It got me to thinking. Rails consistency and conventions are one of the biggest advantages for AI. While far from perfect, it seems the less code needed (Ruby/Rails) is a multiplier for AI.
