Short bio:
I am a software architect and computational thinker with a deep fascination with the notion of communicative programming. My Ph.D. research centered around the application of Domain Specific Languages in order to allow concepts to be communicated more clearly and efficiently. I am actively involved in applying these techniques within industry whilst researching further into related concepts such as the aesthetics of programing languages and language oriented programming. I strongly believe that the pursuit of conceptual efficiency is more important than that of computational efficiency.

So, a date has been set for my viva: 9.30am on Friday the 7th of December. My fate will be sealed upon that morning. The thought is exciting yet scary. Wish me luck!

Wowsers, so you went ahead and got Rubinius working on your machine. You played about with sirb, and sighed at the beauty of the coloured error reports. What more in life could you want? Well, you’re reading this, so you must want more. So, before we can go anywhere, we need to have a look round and explore the structure of the project...

So, you cloned and compiled Rubinius, had a tinker about, chatted to people in #rubinius and found out that they just added a cool new feature that you’re just dying to check out. Problem is, you’ve probably not got much experience with git, and you’re wondering “how do I update to the latest version?”. Wonder no...

OK, so you saw Evan Phoenix’s talk at RailsConf in Berlin on Rubinius, and you just had to get a piece of that action. After all, there’s Ruby everywhichway, the error reporting is both beautiful and useful, it’s already mostly faster than mri1, and the optimisation process has hardly started. Oh, let’s also not forget...
