Repeat after me: Ruby on Rails is not a language. Ruby on Rails is not a language. Ruby on Rails is not a language.

Ruby appeared in 1995.

Although true, does not alter my point.

Also, I don't see that I claimed Rails was a language, but I can see how it can seem I implied that.

"Another thing, Ruby first appeared in early versions in 1995. Node.js appeared in 2009. But Ruby is still in the early days of it being a language? I wonder if that's in reference to recent growth in popularity and/or usage?"
I'm failing to understand your point.
