I use ruby whenever I need a script, it's super easy to work with other commands in ruby IMO.

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.
