Hmm, I should have noticed that, Kirill. Should we bury this one?

Very poor. Clearly posted by someone with an axe to grind. A PHP dev perhaps?

2003 Presentation by the creator of Ruby. Should we instead look for someone whose bravado and certainty interferes with his or her ability to recognize the strengths and weaknesses of the first versions and make them better? Or perhaps just take the title of a single slide and use it as the tile of a thin link. Ruby is far from perfect. Ruby doesn't suck, however. C++ sucks.

C++ could suck, but Ruby can do what C++ do???

I don't think so otherwise the entire game development industry already be using Ruby.

I think we should remove this link: it is completely outdated and misleading, given the rumors around ruby/ror in these days.
