Good to start bad to inherit.

I think the key is that ruby is good for kickstarting a business and getting it to a state where the business runs with high execution speed and minimal effort.

Once the business is operational and stable then continuing from there is bad. Usually you will have to change the entire stack and of course from certain perspectives this can be seen as a lack of foresight.

But if you chose to use another technology to start it could be that the speed of execution just wasn't fast enough and your business never reaches that island of stability because the technology just wasn't fast enough.

Rails can be pretty much fine unless you hit massive proportions but then you are going to have problems in every language
