I Love Ruby: Get started with the greatest programming language made for humans

  Meta: I realize this book's subtitle ("the greatest programming language made for humans") is unnecessarily objective/divisive even if I do personally agree with that statement. No flamewar intended :)

  It's 3AM and I'm feeling sleepy, so I skimmed around. When I look at book, I want to do some projects with (insert language) or get some insight with it. This book and a lot of programming books feel like reference material, which is not the point I guess? A lot of technical people forget insight. I could also be wrong.

    I usually find that with online tutorials, which tend to be a strict function by function synopsis. The best books tend to go a lot more in depth, involving practical exercises that do something marginally related to what you might do in real life with the language.

      I agree and I also take my words back.
