This document discusses the history and future of the Ruby programming language. It touches on Ruby's origins in the prehistoric and classical eras, its growth during the Renaissance and modern periods, and how it may continue to evolve and compete with other technologies in the postmodern age. The author expresses a fear that Ruby could lose popularity but also a hope and dream that Ruby will continue winning users and develop new features to remain competitive.
