I don't know why you're being voted down.. even Avdi Grimm supports that: http://www.virtuouscode.com/2015/08/11/what-its-like-to-come-back-to-a-ruby-project-a

  I didn't downvote but I suspect whoever did saw the GP comment as bashing Ruby and being off-topic, even though some of my comment talked about Ruby's philosophy as a whole (though I felt it was important to include the context in which Grimm's philosophy is grounded). FWIW, I almost never use Ruby today, having switched to Python for both teaching and development purposes. That doesn't mean that learning Ruby didn't influence me. For starters, it taught me the dangers of giving programmers too much syntactic freedom :).

  I would not equate refactoring an active project with returning to a dormant project.
