Justin Etheredge writes about software development with .NET, Rails, JavaScript, and CoffeeScript, plus opinions on programming practice.
HN commenters link his reply to the "Rails is yesterday's software" post; one other comment is a joke about hacker beards.

Beards that look good with suspenders and the occasional suit when necessary. Beards that get you on lists like this: http://www.codethinked.com/post/2007/12/06/The-Programmer-Dress-Code.aspx
Adding to this, I have this blog post bookmarked from an HN post a few months ago:

It was made in response to a popular post claiming that Rails is “yesterday’s software”.
