This is, admittedly, more of a personal ramble than a technical article. For the past few years, I have become something of a Crystal believer. Looking at recent movements in Ruby from the perspective of a Crystal believer, I sometimes find myself thinking: “That is the area Crystal people have been digging into for years, and Ruby’s real strengths are not really there, are they…?” I have not been

It represents a calculated, multi-faceted strategic maneuver by Microsoft, signaling a pr
