One thing has been bugging me lately. I've been looking around for jobs= in Ruby and I always find Rails within minutes, but pure Ruby or Raw Ruby = are never really mentioned. I just find it odd that Rails completely domina= tes the Ruby market when quite frankly Ruby itself is an excellent language= for administration on its own. I can understand it falling under "a s= cripting language" in most markets like Python or Perl, but given its = strengths why doesn't it stand more on its own outside of large scale D= SLs?
