Ruminations on Development
Quick Anectode About Learning Ruby
Ok... I've decided to try to learn Ruby
, and I've got a quick chuckle to share with you...
I got my hands on a copy of the Pragmatic Programmers
"Programming Ruby
". Here is the funniest snippet I've found so far:
"Because if itself is an expression, you can get really obscure with statements such as
if artist == "John Coltrane" artist = "'Trane" end unless use_nicknames == "no"
This path leads to the gates of madness."
He he he!

Sir,
I find your "blog" to be inaccessible to all but the most "l33t" nerds.
Sincerely yours,
Mr Karl G D Barrow, Esq.

Karl,
Thanks. I'll take this under advisement... :-)
