how to control gems vs plugins loading order in Rails
I have a plugin that must be loaded before resource_controller. The reason is that Resourcecontroller tries to load ApplicationController and it depends on the said plugin (and will fail to load if plugin's init.rb was not loaded yet). The problem is that ResourceController comes from a gem and not a plugin. Is there a way to load plug...

Why is it "wrong to require rubygems"?
According to this post, requiring rubygems is an antipattern. require 'rubygems' The argument seems to boil down to this: When I use your library, deploy your app, or run your tests I may not want to use rubygems.
