I think that people blow it out of proportion, but the primary language choice (and I do mean the language they use when they can chose) of a developer does imply something, however small. Assembly programming is different enough to Ruby programming that it does imply something about a person that prefers working in either the former or latter environment. However, the reason I agree with you and upvoted you is that Ruby, Python and Perl are so similar in mindset that anything you might learn from those choices is basically lost in the noise. It's like trying to figure out what a person's choice of colour of parachute means... which is silly, but the fact that he or she skydives does mean something.
