This doesn't address the fact that scaffolds teach the learner incorrect things. Even if it's instant, it's still ultimately bad. Furthermore, since they shouldn't use them when they get more advanced either, it leads them down the long path, and 'running like magic' means that you didn't really learn anything anyway. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Core" group.
