I don't use Ruby anymore, but I still use irb everyday as a command line calculator.

Metasploit and Gitlab are both my main uses of ruby, hasn't made me think any better of it tho.

But Cinc and its sell-out dad Chef are really great uses of ruby, keeping us from YAML hell and the kludgey socket-machine-gun that is Ansible. That piece of shit has more lithium-lick than I've ever seen.

If we can't have mgmtConfig (ohai go), at least let us keep Cinc, but it needs ruby.

Lots of stuff in Japan still runs Ruby/RoR, though I think it is slowly being replaced

I like ruby. Use it for a bunch of things at work.
