Yes, but keep reading here, even if you understand little of it.  
There’s a ton of good information here to pick up by osmosis!

NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO NO

ruby is a programming language. There exists a program written with the  
ruby programming language called “ruby on rails”. If you want to ask  
questions about a program written in ruby, you need to ask the person  
who wrote the program. Apparently, there are a lot of people who have  
questions about the program “ruby on rails”, so instead of emailing the  
guy who wrote the program and bothering him constantly, they have formed  
discussion groups so they can ask each other questions about that very  
confusing program.
