Ask HN: I get GAE and django. I don't really get RoR. What am I doing wrong?

I've been a programmer for a while (embedded, backend daemon, etc), though not much web stuff.

GAE/DJ seems more natural and intuitive for me but I have to keep saying what was that now? from my notes.

What am I doing wrong?

You're not doing anything wrong; RoR is a different style of framework, that does more things in a declarative style. Its more intuitive for lots of people, but probably not so much with people with lots of system programming experience, for whom a framework with less "magic" is likely to be more intuitive.
