With a lengthy list of things that I'd like to do on the open source front, I've spent 100 hours playing Witcher 3. Didn't play any game since GTA V came out.
I feel ashamed for such a sort of procrastination, and I have mixed feelings when multiply 100 hours by my hourly rate.
But the game is great, and I feel that it's what I need right now.
How do you spend your time when not feeding the insatiable creative part of your personality?

This talk is brilliant https://vimeo.com/9270320
All about the lack and overlook of fundamental research in different aspects of practical programming.
It touches so many topics that it would hardly fit into a toot limit.
Just watch it.

Past discussion was mostly passive

Question. In which namespace `B` is defined?
```ruby
A = Class.new do
B = 1
end
A::B # => ???
