What the Ruby hiring trend shows

Ruby's curve in the 'Who is hiring?' thread is the arc of the Rails startup era: a strong early presence as Rails was the default way to ship a web product, then a gradual decline as Python, Node and Go absorbed the same roles. The chart shows that long fade - use share mode to watch Ruby's slice shrink, and counts for absolute volume. Drill into any month to read the postings: Ruby roles still cluster around established Rails shops and product-focused teams.
