I can think of 3 points:
1. Using the strength of the language/environment (what is it for Ruby?)
2. Using common 'best-practices' - but why that should be different between Ruby and other languages?
3. The actual look-and-feel of your code - and I mean that your code is not write-only, and can be used in a group too...
In any way such a question would - in most cases at least - turn me hot...It sounds me like a 'tech' guy who didn't got over the slogans and buzzwords of the subject...

Not sure. I could see someone objecting to trying to write C# like Java or vice versa; but C# and Ruby are different enough that I don't see how you could abuse one into looking like the other.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I am guessing he is either:
- talking about building up classes using Ruby's strengths and understanding how to apply duck typing in the best ways, or
- talking out of his arse.

Not sure. Perhaps the filter confused the word 'duck' with something else

Well, in my opinion, any conversation on duck-typing should be moderated!

But wait a second. Didn't you write an article about that not too long ago? I remember reading it.

Maybe the antispam is crossed that you drank all of its gin reserve.
It is a petty entity, I'd never be crossed for such a minor thing but stay away from the Whisky if you value your continued existence

Unless I'm employing someone to create strategies, they can keep their strategies at home -- that's as "aligned" as they need to be.
