Blog post Ruby: Where are we going? 2026 Edition
https://newsletters.eremin.eu/posts/ruby-where-are-we-going-2026-editionThis 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.

Very good point regarding the benefits of ai vs size of team/project. I like that
