But reading your comment makes it sound like that's all there is to him - it isn't. I found his book brilliant - the quirkiness in no way made it any less informative or useful, and only made it more enjoyable. I encourage anybody who hasn't read it, or who want's to learn Ruby, to take a look at http://poignantguide.net/ruby/ http://poignantguide.net/ruby/
Since he's able to contribute/create/do as much as he does, I say let him do it in any way he wants. Apparently he finds it fun to create and preform a character.
- nihilocrat 18y agoYeah, if you look at the literature surrounding the things he's created (hacketyhack, potion, etc.), you'll notice he talks pretty normal when it's about serious stuff.
- DannoHung 18y agoQuite. _why's style is simply there to get you interested. The substance of his work is what keeps you interested.
