One thing I really enjoy with this post is the conclusion. It doesn't try to tell you it's the only way, just that it's the way they found to fix their problem with the constraints they had, as it should be. Rails is easy to

I'm annoyed every time homakov posts a vulnerability. He writes in a way that belittle his target, like everyone is stupid except himself. Also, I really dislike how he handles his disclosures.
