wow lol. Des gustibus non-est disputandum.
i code in go these days. i have done perl and java and some others, started with c, did a bit of python along the way. ruby was always my favorite language. so expressive, so easy to be clear while being terse. i've spent months of my life shortening (my own) verbose ruby code. i switched to go only because of the execution speed and the compilation, a few years back the comparison was not even close. i don't know if i would like to go back to dynamic language... but i found ruby to be such a beautiful language.
p.s. this was big when i was leaving ruby: https://rubocop.org/ https://rubocop.org/ maybe there is a replacement now, but maybe it would have changed your view.
