With "exists" I meant obviously "is popular because" or "the main use case of Ruby is Rails"—I think you get the point. I disagree on your second point, langua

I disagree on your second point, languages drive innovation otherwise C/C++ would be sufficient for all of us. Anyway, let's not start a flamewar on languages, I like Rails using it myself.
- emmapersky 14y agoAh, I think we may have been talking cross purposes. Languages themselves are innovative, but I guess I don't see people using the language as the innovation there, but rather the creator and maintainer. More specifically I don't see my early adoption of Ruby as innovative. No to the flamewars! I love Ruby and miss it every day (though C++ is growing on me).
