I have been playing with Ruby on Rails over the past few days and there is nothing else to say except, “wow”.

I built a whole application, database and all, in 30 minutes. Ruby’s “generate” scripts created all of the controllers, views, and models and all I had to do was edit the controllers and views to suit my needs. I threw in some of the Rails Ajax stuff and had a basic accounting application up and running in 30 minutes.

Work is a week past its halfway point and things are going well. I’ve found that PowerBooks have trouble connecting to WPA-TKS protected wireless networks. Does anyone know why this is? I get an “encryption method” error whenever I try to connect. Anyone with ideas please send them to s [at] badice dot com.
