Transcript JAMES: I have read one of the articles on your blog just recently. Like in that one article, I think I learned about three methods that I didn't even know existed. *laughter* CHUCK: James, I thought you knew everything? JAMES: I know. So did I. Then I read the blog post and found out I was wrong. Crap. CHUCK: Now my world is going to shatter. What else don’t you know? CHUCK: [This podcast is sponsored by New Relic.

This week, on our panel we have Jesse Storimer. JESSE: Hey everyone! CHUCK: I usually do the guest last, but I got ahead of myself. You wanna introduce yourself? JESSE: Sure. I'm Jesse. Currently, I'm employed at Shopify and I have been doing Ruby there for about 4 years. Before that, I was doing other web stuff. I was doing PHP and C#. The book we are talking about today, “Woking with Unix Processes” kind of grew out of my experience there in getting better in doing Rails web stuff. I got interested in the infrastructure behind the application and did my investigations there and building stuff there came the knowledge into a book. CHUCK: Cool. I got to mention this is a Book Club episode for Working with UNIX Processes. We also have Avdi Grimm! AVDI: Hello from Pennsylvania! CHUCK: Avdi, so you are working on a new book? AVDI: [laughs] Yeah this sort of the much awaited (by a few people anyway), “Confident Ruby” which is based on Confident Code Talk that I did at a few conferences last year. People are interested in information about that and wanna follow along as I write it. You can go to confidentRuby.com CHUCK: Awesome. We also have James Edward Gray II. JAMES: I’ll be the guest Rogue this week. *laughter* CHUCK: Are you working with anything interesting? JAMES: Yes I am working on interesting things, but I'm not ready to talk about them yet. CHUCK: Okay. If you want more of James, go to Rubies in the Rough. JAMES: That's retired now. CHUCK: Okay don’t go to Rubies in the Rough. *laughter* JAMES: It was a good idea, but no. CHUCK: “Retired in the Rough”. JAMES: Right. CHUCK: Alright I'm Charles Max Wood from teachmetocode.com and I'm actually going to be putting up a webinar in mid-July about JSON API. So if you are interested in that, stay tuned. I’ll put a link in the show notes. Let’s go ahead and jump in and talk about the book. (I'm going to find my Kindle over here).
