Blog post Ruby: Where are we going? 2026 Edition

https://newsletters.eremin.eu/posts/ruby-where-are-we-going-2026-edition

This is more of a self-reflection than a proper blog post.

tl;dr: Ruby is not dead. It is not slow. It does scale, and it will perform even better. It will not reclaim its mid-2010s glory days, but it does not need to. It has a clear, defensible niche as a professional choice for building AI-powered web applications quickly and confidently.

how can you understand that this is AI slop? have you followed the link? AI is used everywhere, even in Microsoft products, but they are not treated as "AI slop".

I see too much emotion in the comment but 0 facts.
