I've inherited 200K lines of spaghetti code — what now? Personally I've worked on a codebase for 6 months that was created by another programmer in a few months. I was able to get the codebase stable, but not up to my own standards. Bottom line: bad programmers can do damage a lot faster than good programmers can fix it. I will now always consider a rewrite. |

When to favor webforms over MVC i think abstracting away basic REST is back, the entire postback model is back, the way html/css is handed with a reliance on the GUI editor is bad, the emphasis on stuff like wizards and GUIs to set stuff up is bad, the URLs are bad, etc and so on |

When to favor webforms over MVC everyone on this thread is referring to ASP.NET MVC, the product by microsoft - not MVC the design pattern, though the product is named after the design pattern because it uses it. |

When to favor webforms over MVC IMO, never use webforms when you can use MVC instead. |

Is it bad practice for services to share a database in SOA? -1. They should only be in seperate databases if there is a reason to put them there. You need to "get something out of it" because it certainly makes your app more complex. |

Reasons for a Java Developer to learn RoR I don't know, the Rails is pretty big and has lots of features. The learning curve is pretty high, but maybe not as high as say, the Spring framework and all it's crappage <cough> I mean baggage |

Ruby on Rails downsides and caveats -1 Good rails bashing post but you don't even suggest an alternative. "Nested forms" is a tough problem and Rails probably solves it better than anyone. |

What ASP.NET MVC can do and Ruby on Rails can't? -1 I don't see any reason why ASP.NET MVC would be considered more flexible - if you look at the major components, routing, controllers, rendering, they are all just rips off rails and missing a lot of features, too. |

What ASP.NET MVC can do and Ruby on Rails can't? Yeah I've worked on many rails apps and have never seen request.post?... posts on edit views go to the update action |

What are the downsides of RoR? -1 this is just a general "framework" downside. In my experience rails is extremely flexible for a framework. The examples listed " - interact with an existing database, talk to another application that doesn't have a JSON or XML API defined, implement a complicated workflow" are all false |
