Ruby's not ready 18 years ago
Blah Bah Blah Bah Blah Blah.
Too much time is wasted on this planet due to people trying to convince themselves they are "doing the right thing".
I don't know (or care) what the results are for others. For me, Ruby on Rails saves me tremendous time when developing projects and makes me enjoy coding web apps again. So I use it.
If you get that same feeling, use it too. If you don't, try something else.
Anyone who sees anything more to this needs a vacation.
