I installed ruby only in my personal account, not the global.
Sometimes I was using the older ruby version (1.x), but sometimes I am 
using the latest ruby (3.x). For example, different streaming libraries 
for ruby require different versions.

For instance, I developed a ruby client for Kafka streaming, and 
deployed it in crontab, and this script must use ruby 3.x version.

0 * * * * ruby kafka-consumer.rb

But one day I changed the default version in my personal path to ruby 
1.x via rbenv, the crontab above should not work. This is a risk, is it?
