How I see RoR changing the way we use, read & write software:

1. Organic qualities of autonomy. Create a body then spend time on the brain. The body should evolved as the code grows. The brain is where firing a single neuron can tell the body to catch a ball, or make a face smile.
   
   Each line of code in your brain that is not as important as this should be evolved into the body.
   
   
2. Minimizing the amount of code between the thought and the code that expresses the action resulting from that thought.
