So thankfully, it would appear that Ruby is kept alive by the Japanese.

I have never really understood the craze for Python . I am by no means a guru, but I consider Ruby a far superior language; ( yes, I recognize that the numerous scientific and ML libraries of python make it a logical choice for many projects, but this is sort of like a self fulfilling prophesy)

My love for Ruby declared, I have on occasion wished that we had a "strict" feature in the language similar to ES5 that would permit only the use of Ruby's more straightforward features and also exclude deprecated methods and techniques. This might give the language a deserved boost.

Does anyone know what the most utilized language in Japan is ? And what framework they use there for web projects, if not Rails ?
