Ha. Is there a high performance, compiled, and concurrent friendly language that looks like Ruby? Please share. :)

Rust might be your best bet.

I think better advice for you is to just stay away from opinionated languages. I don't think Rust falls into that category, but I'm not sure.

Looks like Ruby? You mean syntactically like "end" instead of "}", I assume.

Sorry, but the C syntax is dominating the native-compiled world. You could try Pascal, they have "end". Or use C with preprocessor magic:

  #define END     ;}
If you mean Ruby like terse, generic code, then try Rust, Go, and D.

Yes, have a look at Crystal.

https://github.com/manastech/crystal

It is still an ongoing development, though.

I personally am looking very heavily into Rust, but if you haven't seen Elixir, you should.
