What's more, if there's one group of programmers who should be worried about doing things The Right Way, it's library writers.

- Davertron 17y agoI think he's talking about people using Rails worrying too much, not the people writing the Rails framework. Just as an aside, I totally agree that we spend too much time worrying about this sort of thing. I'm definitely guilty of this myself. I think it's probably born out of the heavy use of "convention over configuration" in Rails; whenever I try to do something, I always think "Am I following convention here?". My instinct now usually tells me "probably not, but just get it done and worry about that later".
