With rails, I develop webapps so fast, they feel rushed, even when I''m trying to take my time and spend a lot of attention to detail. I''m doing in days what would take me weeks or even months in perl, and I just can''t shake this feeling that I''m doing something wrong, like I''m forgetting some major piece of the puzzle, and that when I go live with the site it''ll be a case of "the emperor has no clothes".

Except, I usually sit there, get something done in 1/10 of the time and sit there 9/10 of the time gazing at the screen wondering why it was so fast. As soon as I can shake this, I should be really productive ;) Ssacha
