I’ve got a special place in my heart for Ruby and rails and the scaling argument always kills me. If you’re a small app, why solve a problem you don’t have? It’s not cool to write Ruby apps anymore, that’s why. Most problems people face are architectural problems, not language problems, and even if you do hit them, it’s probably a pretty damn small slice of your app you have to optimize.

Yeah... "you are not Google". Web apps that need huge perf are almost an anomaly in the web dev industry.
