Anyone find it suspicious how many companies put so much effort into justifying how Rails is still a good tech for a mature company?
I think the truth is really something like - we prototyped the app in Rails, because that's what Rails is good at, now we've evolved into a huge and slow application with no type validation, but porting the application and switching the team to something better and faster would be a nightmare, so we're just going to write an article about feeling good about where we're at.
