I'm not comparing C++ with ruby for webdev. I just said that I moved to a webdev job from a realtime trading job where we used c++. I'm just saying that my mental state of mind at work has become much better because of the change. I'm purely talking about language differences. One simple exaple is the difference in time it takes to code a snippet that iterates over an array of arrays. In c++ this would take me atleast 15 minutes (finding all the types involved, compiles for error checking etc) with no test written. In ruby I cud have everything done in 1 minute. The better the tool you use the less stress it puts on you the builder.
