> what's the selling point of ruby?

I'd say it is custom webapp development (with rails) and scripting on the command line (anything bash can do, ruby can do better).

PHP is good on the web with the huge installed base of wordpress, but when it comes to custom web app development, ruby (well, rails, really) holds its own with laravel, symfony and the other MVC frameworks.
