Students In Boston: For or Against? (Sep 04 2007 19:54 GMT) - I have often opined that the large student population here in Boston is a driving force behind what makes this city so great. From the indie rock scene, to the cheap-o food and drink options, to the nerd-hungry companies that set up shop here, I have long felt that I am fortunate to live in a city with such a heavy college and college student presence. But this weekend, as I was held hostage in my apartment, blocked in by 16 rental trucks and piles of trash, and later awakened by drunken college students screaming at 4am, I began to question how much these co-eds really bring to the city.

Book Review: Ruby Pocket Reference by Michael Fitzgerald (Sep 04 2007 19:51 GMT) - While this isn't the book to learn Ruby, it is the book to keep with you when you are working with it. It’s a little thing, this Ruby Pocket Reference, but it's also a mighty big thing if you are working with the Ruby language. Ruby is an easy language to learn, but when you are down in the trenches and, especially, when you are far from home, its nice having this little reference book close by. |
