Bath Ruby Conference 2018 - Bath Is Nice So We Are Nice
summary
Conference session argues Ruby's primary value is its community-first culture and developer happiness, backed by a 25-year history from Matz and examples of Rails turning team-weeks of web work into weekend prototypes. Data-driven points include Andy Nesbitt's analysis of open-source package repos and a millions-of-programmers dataset about usage patterns. Claims about growing diversity and 500 attendees at Bath 2018 appear repeatedly; the talk emphasizes practical impact rather than language syntax or theory.
