Dear Rails Noobs

27 Dec 2007
SCAFFOLD HAS BEEN DEPRECATED AS OF RAILS 2.0.

There has seemingly been an infinite number of posts to the ruby on rails talk mailing list going “OMG SCAFFOLD IS NOT WORKING!!11!11PLZHALPNOW!1”. I want all the newbies out there to understand that the Agile Web Development book is useless! (well, that part). STOP POSTING THAT SCAFFOLDING IS NOT WORKING. It is very irritating.

If you took the time out of your obviously extremely busy schedules and actually googled “Rails 2.0 scaffold” you will see that the wonderful Google hamsters have scoured the internet and found people with such hastiness as yourselves! GOOGLE BEFORE ASKING. It saves a crap load of effort on both sides and stops me writing nasty posts like this.

Maybe your New Year’s Resolution can be to “Just Fucking Google It”.
