Well, given that I work for me, I code in whatever language I like, provided it meets the client's spec.
As Prometheum said, Ruby is currently very slow compared to PHP etc..
Personally, I'd rather use my own development framework in PHP than Ruby with the Rails framework.
There's still far more existing code in PHP than Ruby, so I really don't see PHP going away.
If I were to move away from PHP, it'd probably be to C#.
