Note that while this talk is sort of funny and sarcastic to make it entertaining; it's not a fake submission. This is a real talk that I can actually give!

Title

Write your Ruby...while it's already running

Abstract

Do you write your code in an editor and THEN run it? That's two whole steps! What if you could write your code while it was running? That's one step and we all know that one is better than two. Come to this session and we'll learn that you can actually write your Ruby from the inside out using the debugging gem, pry. We'll start with an empty program. Then we'll run it, write it, debug it, and commit it all without ever having to leave the terminal where the program is running. If you live for the thrill of programming that is both ambitious and completely unnecessary, then you'll love this talk.
