> A customer will not know or care if you are using Ruby, Go, PHP or any other language

Users will absolutely notice if your product crashes or breaks, which is more likely with some languages than others. The single most likely reason for me to stop using a nominally useful product is that it doesn't work reliably. I hate the fact that so much technology today is broken, partly because people have this cavalier attitude towards choosing technologies that help to keep things working.
