I think Ruby is essentially dead in the waters. It just has no unique selling point. Python is better at small scripts, machine learning and mathematical application. PHP7 has much better tooling for HTTP, the largest CMS systems and doesn't have any boot time to speak of. JS & Node is the new kid on the block with tons of great libraries being written for it. Why would you start to learn Ruby today?
