I’d heard about Ruby when the whole Ruby on Rails hype wave hit a few years ago. For whatever reason I didn’t give it a proper look until recently. Wow. I’m a changed person. For a long time I’d considered coding to be not my thing; too tedious and boring. I’m an pragmatic engineer type. I like to just get things done.
Starting to read the books on Ruby, it feels like the language was written for people like me. For the first time I actually enjoy writing code and learning how to do things in better ways.
Then there’s Ruby on Rails, a web framework written in Ruby. I cant believe how easy it is to get started.
Shakabuku!

Debi: It’s a swift, spiritual kick to the head that alters your reality forever.
Marty: Oh, that’d be good. I think.
