Since it takes about 50 lines of PHP to 1 line in Rails, I'd say that it all adds up to PHP is dying, Rails is skyrocketing. Perl and Python continue to get...
Hi all, I'm new to the arctan group. Just moved to Austin from Tokyo. I'm kind of a Ruby novice, but love it and want to be more involved in some kind of Ruby...
Hey John, Hope you can join us for lunch some Thursday. We meet every Thursday at 11:30 for lunch, location varies week to week. BTW, there is also a Rails...
Welcome to town. In addition to David's comments we have the upcoming LoneStarRubyConf.org :) ... -- Wayne Walker www.unwiredbuyer.com - when you just can't...
I didn't promote it since I'm a co-organizer and didn't want to be too salesy :) But yes, for the price (and since it is in town, no airfare or hotel), it's...
We are happy to announce that registration for Lone Star Rubyconf 2007 is Now Open. We have an exciting line-up of speakers, that will be posted this week,...

I'm looking forward to it! Trying to finish up YAPC planning right now, but after that I plan on diving back into Ruby. I have a few books, I just haven't...
So, what goes on at these lunches? ____________________________________________________________________________________ Choose the right car based on your...
... Sorry, but that is privileged information. You will have to pass a series of Ruby tests and several physical stamina tests before we can reveal that to...
I know you all are joking, but you do realize how "insidery" the weekly lunches are. I don't think anybody has ever posted a, "hey, newcomers are welcome"...
and ironically, the luncherator isn't really used for what you would think it's primary purpose would be...selecting a place that is convenient based on the...
... I've heard other's make similar remarks. Although it is not the reality, the lunches do have that air. The location/food selection process is not...
I'll say "Hey, newcomers are welcome. (but I won't be there to welcome you)". I hope to free time up to make some in the future. But to followup on Chip,...
... Sometimes i see a lunch announcement and sometimes i don't. Is the location always posted to the list (even if i miss it some times -- possible) or do we...
Ha ha, well said Damon. The goal is to have luncherator with a few more features by Lone Star RubyConf, that gives me 2 months. I need to make a list of...
I am a "silent" member of the Austin Ruby Group for a longer period of time and I haven't met anyone yet. :( I really need to put that on my top priority ToDo...
Bret- Due to the yahoo group latency, sometimes the announcement get delivered after the fact (and sometimes spottily so it seems). Assume lunch is every week...
... The strategy I use when I send out emails for the Austin Bloggers monthly get-together is: 1) Always be sure the email specifically invites (in some form...
... Typically things like: making fun of Windows and Java, waxing nostalgic about some computing relic like punch cards, paper tape, or perl, complaining about...
... Whoa, this is good for us to hear. We (I) had no idea people thought the lunch thing was exclusionary. Just the opposite, we want to be inclusionary. We...
... It's just that the core people have been meeting a long time and know each other pretty well. It is not the *intention* to be insider-ish. Let's find ways...
One suggestion would be to have a flag or something for the group. When i first came, I had to scan the restaurant to find some one who looked like a Ruby...
