Doubtful, and what's the alternative? Somebody else hacking MIT in Sabu's name to make life difficult for him sounds much more likely, and hilarious.

It's a tool, like a gun. If it's pointed at a computer you have authorization to exploit, it's good. If someone malicious is pointing it at you, it's not.

This won't work if your Gemfile declares a version of Rails (Rails 3.2.9 did this). You have to update the Gemfile and then bundle update.

Update the version in your project's Gemfile, and run "bundle update rails".

It means the UI isn't implemented in JavaScript or maybe that it doesn't support extensions. It's kind of a useless word to describe software. Fun drinking game: drink every time you see a github project, ruby gem, or Linux package labeled

Nope, because you didn't believe in it enough to build it, instead choosing to waste time posting on websites. Zuckerberg didn't ask if he should build Facebook, the GitHub founders didn't ask if they should make GitHub, and Jason Fried did
