As a language, Ruby is awesome. As a host for cryptographic applications, Ruby is hobbled by a very serious error that they refuse to correct.

Yea, I always liked Ruby's implicitness and style of writing code. For crypto I'd prefer to use Sage or Python's cryptography.io framework (a lot of other good options for performance critical code of course).
