I give up: Why’s Poignant Guide to Ruby

Why’s (Poignant) Guide to Ruby

If any single human being has read this book from beginning to end and can explain to me the insanity that is “why”, I’ll buy you a cup of coffee to do so.

I have given up on this book. From the looks of it, I’ve tried three different times over the course of about a year and got to about halfway (I’ve highlighted about halfway through).

Definitely poignant, but horrendously confusing. It definitely is a work of art, but I’m kinda impatient for this type of thing. Sometimes, the really really wonky humor is lost on me, and this, my friend, is a shining example of it.

Time to go back to the Pickaxe book.
