Ruby is a not a great language but my main complaints are: 1. installing rvm breaks sometimes due to random code changes (i think the maintainers fix them recently) 2. they seem to think every app has just 1 database so they dont support db sharding themselves without a third party gem. 3. Net::Http is probably the most unintuitive api for crawling web pages.
