Are There Better Languages for Programming with LLMs?

DHH converted his Campfire to several languages with AI and started posting that Rust won. Instead of fighting on X, I built a reproducible benchmark: 7 languages, 4 LLM configurations, 112 implementation attempts, and a queue-under-pressure test with Elixir, Rust, Rails and plain Ruby. Result: no language ranking holds up, concise Ruby cost more tokens than Rust, strong typing spared no repair at all, and under load the four stacks tied on throughput. What matters is testing and discipline, not language.
