@CobaltVelvet You saying this makes me happy I chose sign up for octodon.social. I appreciated the about this instance readme, and it made me feel like I was joining the right place. I still feel that way.
Thanks for everything you do to keep this going.
@staticsafe The Well Grounded Rubyist is another good one. Eloquent Ruby as well.
@staticsafe I highly recommend Practical Object-Oriented Design in Ruby (aka POODR) by Sandi Metz. And good call on reading the docs—they're awesome.
@PunkFairyAlex @Jules This is awesome and you are awesome. Your point at the end—that drives your confrontation of the assholes in question—is such a good one, well put.

@ai_indigo that last cat is groovin'! love it
@Jules I started out as a boot camper, and they emphasized the importance of asking questions and being open about being confused/not understanding things.
Working professionally in the field, I've never stopped being open about that stuff and try to encourage others to do the same. Communication is key and everyone benefits from knowledge that might not have been shared if the question was never asked.
Anyone who snarks in reply is a horse's ass! And it comes off as insecure.
@tiphra Dang that's the worst—sorry to hear that. You'll make it through!
Ashamed to learn that I've been calling Poppin' Fresh by his description rather than his name all these years.
@nothingpaintedviolet I don't but wish I did :/
@Vavassor nor did I. But that was dope
So, apparently a Psych movie is currently in production. This makes me happy.
ANYWAY, for those who haven't heard, Mastodon recently changed how private posts work. I wrote up a quick overview of the changes, which you can read HERE: >>>> https://marrus-sh.github.io/mastodon-info/everything-you-need-to-know-about-privacy-v1.3-020150428.html
@miramarco yeeep. Was similarly disappointed recently.
@GinnyMcQueen yes, but now I also know that metaphor!
@GinnyMcQueen why do spoons always seem to disappear first?
@baeticat I don't usually, but that's not really my learning style. I tend not to be a big note-taker.
@baeticat Physical books for sure. But for certain things—books about programming, etc—I'll go with eBooks because of pricing.
Received my Organelle from Critter & Guitari this weekend, but I haven't played with it yet. Gotta change that tonight.
I have started looking into #puredata though. I'm very much looking forward to creating my own patches for the Organelle.
If anyone has any recommendations for resources to help learn Pure Data, please let me know! I'd really appreciate it.
