This argument is totally spurious. You can find terrible, brain-bending libraries in every language. Why is ruby a write-off because of ActiveRecord?
Seems like the implicit argument is that Root-Object modifications are unmaintainable. But the reality is that assertion really isn't backed up anywhere.
There are lots of valid complaints against Ruby. This is not one of them.

He said "Ruby is a great language," but not his favorite language. I don't consider that writing-off the language.
It just seems like he's claiming citing something and claiming it's a mess, but there's no real evidence that it is a problem.
