+description: "    Changes ActiveRecord's update_attribute (singular) method to behave more intuitively and consistently like\n    update_attributes (plural). ActiveRecord's built-in update_attribute (singular) will not check validations\n    on the object before saving, unlike update_attributes (plural), which will.  \n    \n"
