1. no 2. no, not really - however there may be libraries that python has that ruby doesn't have

Side note: Ruby has more syntax to grok, which makes it harder to read (for me). On the other hand Python does have its own idiosyncrasies and subtle behaviors. However, Ruby also has some features (like multiline inline functions) that one may easily miss in Python, but they haven't been worth switching over for me.

my bad: meant multiline lambdas.
