I agree entirely. My impression was that he feels rails is too accessible and hence there are too many hacks using it.
He wanted to feel more like a hacker, and rails hid (of course by hide he means publishing the source code) too much of it's magic.
In fact, I think publishing an article on Rails v.s. Django and posting it to Hacker News stinks of SEO.

Actually, the only place I posted a link was on a moderated Django Google group. The linking and commentary came as a surprise to me - I wasn't really sure anyone would read it! Not sure who posted it to Hacker News.
