It's important to realize that the greatest strength of Rails is not what but who. Rails places huge emphasis on making programmers happy. What makes programmers happy? Elegant systems which make them productive and take tiresome, tedious bullshit out of their daily lives. People who value that are the people you want to hire.

... Rails doesn't make happy as a programmer though... And I feel that I have given it a fair shot at doing that. Java makes me happy. Python makes me happy. Even C and C++ make me happy. For some reason, Rails doesn't. I really can't even put my finger on why I don't like it.

murban, perhaps Ruby (not Rails) would make you happy if you give it a real chance. Some people just don't like frameworks. Personally, Java used to make me happy until I got into Python and Ruby, both of which I like. Now Java makes me :-<
This article was stupid though. Obviously written by a coder and not a business analyst.
