It's not object oriented, it's a functional language. It is polymorphic and all data is immutable. (Edit: actually realised its very much not like ruby, when I re-read this)
What I've seen in most projects is that the awesomeness that is threading (tasks and processes) is not really used. Supervisors aren't built as first class citizens.
I see teams eat the cost of NIH, but not get the benefits of crash fast, crash often.
So yes it does end up looking/smelling like ruby/rails but it really really shouldn't.
“A language that doesn't affect the way you think about programming, is not worth knowing.”
