Copy pasting my comment from the blog:
I wonder how rails would look if it used refinements.
I also would love to see something on ruby like module exports from python/javascript
My biggest pain points with rails are:
- the thousands of monkey patches, that could maybe be dealt with refinements
- the autoloader, that as far I know dont have a good language level mechanism
I think if we had a module system similar to what we have on JS/python things could be much better.
