As a brand new Rails developer/web developer altogether, I'm an outsider looking. But it feels to me the chants of "Rails is doomed" mirror that of "PHP is doomed". Yet as you state (and show in your links) PHP is still very healthy and nowhere near death. Sure it might not be the hottest thing on the block, but really JS won't remain the hottest thing on the block in 20 years either, but JS won't die. Neither will Rails. Rails might not the new scorching hotness that it was in 2006, but it's still plenty hot. Rails has quite a bit of life left in it.
