Online presentation: The Curious Incident of the Shadow in the Run-Time #155

Closed paulfioravanti closed 4 years ago

paulfioravanti commented 4 years ago

This talk is all about the perils of shadowing in Ruby, starting with variable shadowing, and exploring a lesser-known but worth-knowing form of shadowing that you should try and avoid in your codebase.

Intended audience - Probably intermediate upwards, but I've tried to be as beginner-friendly as possible.

Twitter username is @paulfioravanti.

I've previously given this talk at ROROSyd, so I'm happy to have this talk slotted in at whatever meetup is appropriate.

Thanks, Paul! How long is this talk?

paulfioravanti commented 4 years ago

Last time I did it, I recall it being 15-20 minutes.

VanessaNimmo commented 4 years ago

hi @paulfioravanti! would you be happy to present this at our May meetup on the Wednesday the 27th?

paulfioravanti commented 4 years ago

Sure thing! Lock me in!

VanessaNimmo commented 4 years ago

Wonderful! The meeting will be open from 6pm, with announcements and presentations starting at 6:30pm. I think we also have a lightning talk for the May meetup, so will probably do that one first, then your longer talk so that we can spend time on questions afterwards. See you (online) then!
