If this wasn't a RoR hatchet job, why put it in the title and sprinkle sarcastic jabs all over the article?
Regarding his recommendation at the end, if someone suggested a server with 32GB of memory to run a site that has "About one user every 10 minutes", I would think "damn, this doesn't scale" :)

It doesn't attack RoR so much as a subset of the RoR community. It pretty much abstains from the topic of RoR as a language and framework.
