No Idea How Long It Will Last ...

... but right this very second, Amazon's UnSpun Best Programming Language list definitely reflects my feelings, at least.

Ruby is way out in front. Strangely, there are two items for it in the list, both of which far outweigh every other language.

So, irrespective of whether they should be combined or only the largest considered, Ruby outdoes the other contenders by at least a factor of five!

Of course, it could simply be that some clever Rubyist has written a script to do a little automatic voting, but it's just reflecting the true state of affairs, after all :-).
