Social Meejah in potentially interesting outcome shocker.
A question on the Faceache about hackery started me wondering about what I've managed to miss by not having, er, any CS qualifications.
On the other hand, I do have a pile of Useful Books - K&R (pre-ANSI), K&R (post-ANSI), Cheswick & Bellovin, the Lions book, Stevens (Advanced programming), the Pickaxe book, Zaks/6502, various O'Reillys and, er, Reliable data-structures in C. (It was the 80s. That sort of thing was allowed.)
However, I think I'm missing one or more about proper Rubyish object-orienteering. Maybe I should re-read the Pickaxe book.
