Hi, Does anybody have a list of interesting blogs about Ruby? I have realized that all of ones have in my RSS reader have been abandoned, haven't published any new article since long ago. I would like to have in my RSS a list of active and interesting Ruby blogs, someone has to be writing something about Ruby, right? Thanks, Jesus. ---

It's a good question. I'm not catching blogs so much. Avdi Grimm writes in his at [http://devblog.avid.com](http://devblog.avid.com), but mostly I'm listening to his RubyTapas these days. I catch more things from ConFreaks as well. I have another question: are \*you\* writing? (not just Jesus, but anyone out there). I, like I suppose many others, learn a lot and wouldn't mind writing it down, but never seem to get around to it. If the older ruby bloggers aren't anymore, maybe more of us should take it up? (I'm probably age-wise older than many of them, but still learning lots) > **···** > > On Wed, Mar 5, 2014 at 10:30 AM, Jesús Gabriel y Galán \ wrote: > > > Hi, > > > > Does anybody have a list of interesting blogs about Ruby?

(I'm probably age-wise older than many of them, but still > learning lots) I should start writing something once a week about Ruby. I love the language and community, and I enjoy using it. As for older, I suspect I too am on the "to grave" side of the "from cradle to grave" curve. This week I used Array#product at work, and that saved me a lot of time. I'll blog about that at [Stok Footage | Believe what you want, it doesn’t mean you’re right](http://www.stok.ca/blog/) Hope this helps, Mike [1] pry(main)\> ? Array#product Owner: Array Visibility: public Signature: product(\*arg1) Number of lines: 14 Returns an array of all combinations of elements from all arrays. The length of the returned array is the product of the length of self and the argument arrays. If given a block, #product will yield all combinations and return self instead.    [1,2,3].product([4,5]) #=\> [[1,4],[1,5],[2,4],[2,5],[3,4],[3,5]]    [1,2].product([1,2]) #=\> [[1,1],[1,2],[2,1],[2,2]]    [1,2].product([3,4],[5,6]) #=\> [[1,3,5],[1,3,6],[1,4,5],[1,4,6],                               # [2,3,5],[2,3,6],[2,4,5],[2,4,6]]    [1,2].product() #=\> [[1],[2]]    [1,2].product() #=\> > **···** > > On Mar 7, 2014, at 10:12 PM, tamouse pontiki \ wrote: > > > On Wed, Mar 5, 2014 at 10:30 AM, Jesús Gabriel y Galán \> \ wrote: > > From: array.c (C Method): > > -- > > Mike Stok \ > [http://www.stok.ca/~mike/](http://www.stok.ca/~mike/) > > The "`Stok' disclaimers" apply. ---

And honestly, knowing myself, I'll never get around the discipline needed to blog frequently. Maybe if I could join some initiative together with some others, so that we can push each other to write. But my life is complicated and I always have too many things on my plate, so, I guess I'm not a very good candidate for a regular blog.

Actually, there exists a "planet" out there (that is, a website aggregating feeds from other blogs and collecting them at a single joined site) that specifically targets Ruby: [http://plutolive.herokuapp.com/?style=standard](http://plutolive.herokuapp.com/?style=standard) They mention quite a lot of blogs in their subscription list (and Avdi’s there too :-)). AFAIK, that site has been created by the Vienna Ruby User Group. Perhaps they should switch to a more meaningful domain like ruby-planet.org or something like that... I do like that idea and am currently trying to set up something like this specifically for the German Ruby community. So, if you want, just drop me an email so I can include your German Ruby blog there. Of course I’ll post the address to ruby-talk once it’s ready.

Dear Avid Grimm, I always listen to you (and James Edward Gray, Charles Max Wood, Josh Susser, Katrina Owen (until recently)) at Ruby Rogues! ([http://rubyrogues.com/\](http://rubyrogues.com/%5C)). Ruby Rogues has transcripts!!! With the transcripts the Ruby Rogues podcast count as a blog also, doesn't it? Perhaps you native english speakers doesn't get how hard it is for us foreigners to understand spoken english (without a transcript at hand).
