I don't know ruby very well so my likes / dislikes are evolving, but
the moment the things I don't like are:

Ruby has complicated and overloaded anonymous method syntax:
- do ... end, proc.new, lambda, & parameter syntax, blocks are method
parameters but not exactly

Compare this to the javascript equivalent: function() {}

Linking scripts is a pain with require, load, require_relative.

The ability to call private methods.
