Yes, you're correct, it was not an either-or proposition, I'm sorry, they dropped them both.
Seriously, I'm curious, what public facing, or any facing, components does Twitter use that is written in Ruby and/or Rails?
A Google search for "twitter rails" brings up the usual got dumped threads. A similar search, but this time, "twitter scala" brings up, as a first result "Scala School" for Twitter engineers, followed by a bunch of threads on the Twitter + Scala marriage.
Don't worry, Scala has its own issues (Yammer, for example, ditched Scala for Java due to, ironically enough, scalability issues).

- getsat 15y agoI have multiple friends working at Twitter. The frontend is still all Rails.
- virtualeyes 15y agoBizarre, can find nothing on the net that backs that claim, would love to see concrete evidence here in 2012, was under the impression that Twitter was fully ditching Rails.
