    I'm not the parent; but statements to the effect by 37 Signals that they "don't
    hire people unless they use a Mac" probably have a lot to do with this.

    That might explain the high concentration of assholes in the ruby community. I wouldn't hire anyone that uses Mac or iPhone

    Combine that with the "tragicly hip"
    air of the community, and a lot of people find themselves just wishing Rails/Ruby
    would go away.

    At the rate Ruby is fading, it won't take for long. It will never go away completely, but relevance is pretty much done for.
