7. Describing Rails in a Word
   • “Rails is omakase.” by DHH (Rails Founder)
   • When we order in a sushi restaurant, we usually don't need to specify any
   amount of wasabi. Just the same, Rails already has productive architecture
   and best practices to make programming easier. We don't need to waste our
   time defining them.
