Welcome to the 89th issue of De Programmatica Ipsum, about Ruby.
We are thrilled to welcome Graham back to the newsroom! We are also introducing “Arts”, a new category exploring the connection between programming and the arts.
In this edition:
- Graham describes the patterns that explain the rise and popularity of Ruby.
- Adrian raises a warning against the putrefaction of the Ruby community.
- In our Vidéothèque section, we watch Eileen Uchitelle explain the magic behind Ruby on Rails.
- In the Library section, we review “Eloquent Ruby” by Russ Olsen and “The (poignant) Guide to Ruby” by _why.
