This graph shows that Scala grew from 0.02% market share to 0.08% in the last four years. The fact that it's at 0.08% after more than ten years in existence should be a concern for anyone interested in learning it.

For comparison Ruby is just over 0.3% and has been flat for four years. It's the overall job market, not just programming jobs so all percentages will be low.
Sure, so this tells us there are about 20 times as many Ruby jobs than Scala ones.
0.3 / 0.08 = 3.75

That's less that 4x as many Ruby jobs as Scala ones.
