Hi all,<br>
<br>
thanks for having me to speak.<br>
<br>
I must mention that the award was designed by<br>
Songkick's talented designer Gideon Bullock (when he<br>
should have been working).<br>
<br>
Jay seems quite pleased with his award:<br>

<br>
Jay also mentioned that the Methodphitamine now has a<br>
nice NilClass hack in it that looks like this:<br>
<br>
my_array.maybe &it.first.reverse.upcase<br>
<br>
Hacks that didn't make it into the talk are<br>
<br>
 * the evil.rb library by Mauricio Fernandez and<br>
others <a href="http://eigenclass.org/hiki/evil.rb-wants-love" target="_blank">http://eigenclass.org/hiki/evil.rb-wants-love</a><br>
<br>
 * the rewrite gem by Raganwald:<br>

<br>
The second is an interesting attempt to bring Lispy<br>
macros to Ruby. Eat your heart out Tomasz!<br>
<br>
thanks again,<br>
<br>
Dan<br>
