Editor's Notes
- Commuters are not people. Programmers are People. Ruby is a computer language for People.Expressive and Simple
- Hopper – credited with popularizing the term debugging – from an actual moth removed from a Mark II Computer at Harvard University in 1947
- Just Do IT!Play and tinker – socialize – talk out and idea and then figure it out – try something – you will surprise yourself!!
