I highly doubt he's talking about moving industries forward by using Rails. More likely he means moving industries forward by creating and continuing development of Rails.
Say what you want about it now, Rails had a huge impact on the web development industry when it first came out.
Thanks for the correction, doesn't change my reaction.
Languages are great, but its hard to tell
If the proliferation of so many languages moves the industry forward or backward. Wasn't the whole point of the tower of babel story that god created so many languages to slow down progress?
