@noelrap @davetron5000 in a fair blind process, I think you end up with Github and Shopify dominating. They hire people who speak, and even new speakers from there benefit from peers who are experienced speakers. It’s like how Lebron’s kids have natural advantages. They probably are good picks, but I still want to see other perspectives and have those opportunities for a wider group

@noelrap @davetron5000 It looks weird because RSpec’s DSL obscures the ruby object model, which I suspect I have a better mental model of than most

@noelrap longer dev cycles, making developers more money for doing the same work

@noelrap didn’t I? 😁

@noelrap this is where you find the seniors 😉

@nateberkopec I don’t know what it would look like, but having stronger ability to target logging in general would be a boon

@searls I’m curious what Ox or REXML does with that.

@tenderlove in front of a cranberry bog would be even more romantic

@noelrap it’s a fictional place, you’re good 😁

@noelrap I didn’t notice! I did see this, though:

@noelrap well, they are wrong 😆

@noelrap not quite self published there’s a new pickaxe book… 😁

@noelrap Of course! It is imperative!

@noelrap You should write about it, but call it Rappin's Law 😆

@noelrap I will say sources, because I think they have a higher importance
