Regarding tutorials/docs -- would there really be a problem with doing this,
then:
class ActiveRecord
Base = self
end
In other words, ::Base would still work, it'd just be redundant, and
probably depricated.
As for the clarity, there's plenty of indirection anyway. I'd rather have a
clear API.

That breaks code that assumes ActiveRecord is a module and not a
class, which is going to be

I always assumed that AR::Base and AC::Base's name came from the concept of
an abstract base class. I think ::Base is a fine name for the top-most
superclass in a module, but that might just be a side effect of previous
experience.

It's too major of a change to make imo and there's just too many
tutorials/docs out there that reference Class Model <
ActiveRecord::Base. To me, it makes sense that a model "inherits from"
ActiveRecord::Base because that's where a model gets its methods from.

I'm updating an app and wanted to install rspec.
After installing the gem into the system I added:
config.gem "rspec-rails", :lib => "spec"
to config/environment.rb and ran:
rake gems:install
However the install does not complete because my initializer is not run.
In my initializer I d

Can you point me in the direction of some discussion of what's wrong
with the "Base class" that people "frown upon"?
Just wondering, since
There are also faster YAML dumpers out there. A recent Portland code sprint
produced ZAML, a work-in-progress that offers (if I recall correctly)
something like a 14x speed boost over vanilla YAML.dump

YAML's slowness has been a pain point, but
Hi,
One of the things about the Rails code that people tend to frown upon
is the Base class. I was wondering if anyone ever considered replacing
it with with a class name that reflects the actual function of the
class? Maybe we could even use ActiveRecord as a 'base class' for
models? Sta

Yes; after Fred's post I did a bit more research and realize it's a

not a desirable default. I also realized that AR in its current state
