Interesting that the discussion here focuses so much on the actual language. I think the language is fine, but the thing that really makes me stick with Ruby is the ecosystem and the culture it fosters. The article also makes that point. I have yet to see a programming community (around a language) that is as encouraging and nice as the one around Ruby. |

Agreed 100%. It's like the opposite of the javascript community where I feel like the leaders of various camps are constantly trying to tear each other down about the best way to do things as they fight for developer mindshare/marketshare. Maybe I just see too much JS drama on twitter. Anyway, the Ruby community is so wholesome and a breadth of fresh air in the modern tech world.
