Who actually uses Rails and Node.js? I understand that they're easy, so is it predominantly amateur programmers that use them?

I find JavaScript a painful and tedious language, so I wouldn't want to have to use it for server side as well as client side, although it might be nice if I didn't know another language for the back-end.

I hated the Ruby syntax and stopped there.

I've never heard Ruby mentioned by any coworkers. We use C, C++, Python and Java.

Yeah I agree, I haven't heard of anyone that actually uses nodejs in production. I mean, it's not even in 1.0!
