Adventures like this scare me off completely from using kwargs in Ruby https://github.com/rspec/rspec-rails/pull/2509/files#r678474813

Cryptocurrency mining does produce a value, trust, in the same way as gold mining provides trust (well, provided in the past since $ is not bound to gold now) towards fiat currencies.
We don't need as much gold as we mine, do we?
Gold mining is also quite expensive, and is getting more and more expensive over the years.

Boolshit - an incorrect application of the boolean logic.

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?

Also, a fix the problem with an awesome TestProf's `let_it_be` I've spend so much time debugging has been just merged https://test-prof.evilmartians.io/#/let_it_be?id=state-leakage-detection

Sometimes the amount of open-source work is overwhelming. This is just for last two days.

It's really awesome to come back after two months to realize it's really lively and crowded here! Spent a fair amount of time to catch up.

Wrote an article after a long break https://medium.com/@philpirj/questions-to-ask-in-a-programming-job-interview-70b9ed49c53e?source=friends_link&sk=a2c5fad4864cc46bb05f5558f836343d

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.

Mediating style discussions is hard.

My patch has been accepted to Sidekiq, and my article got its way to Ruby Weekly. What a week! 🙌

Question. In which namespace `B` is defined?

```ruby
A = Class.new do
B = 1
end
A::B # => ???
B # => ???
```
