Ruby the language is great, but I'm going to miss ruby the community the most as I migrate to statically typed languages for my day job.
Couldn't agree more! The GORUCO conference is amazing! I've had the wonderful opportunity of speaking there once and volunteering a few time too. It was also where I was first introduced to a dear friend that would go on to become an amazing co-founder of our funded startup (now defunct :) ). Its a great community, great format, you won't regret it!
"Ruby-the-tribe" is the right note to strike: so many of us learned programming with Ruby or learned to love programming through Ruby. Some of us are on to new endeavors, but that love remains. I'm proud to be a member of the tribe!
It is fun to see how my friends in the "tribe" have changed (evolved?) over time. Ruby is what brings us all together and that always makes me smile.
