- “Readers are encouraged to fight RBP as they read it, rather than just soaking up the information. Although I claim this book is about “Best Practices”, the only reason that is true is that it’s a result of countless conversations with folks who are deep in the Ruby trenches getting stuff done. The only way for RBP to remain current and relevant is to continue these discussions, using its content as a jumping off point for fresh ideas.”

This category is the largest in terms of the number of .MGX products it contains, and is made up of products whose central interest is an exploration of what rapid manufacturing technologies can produce, which conventional technologies cannot. It is typified by complex detailing on both the interior and exterior of the product, geometries which would be impossible to achieve were any form of tooling required.”

- “To be honest, there’s not much to say about the Javascript example because it is so simple. We avoid the whole metaclass business because Javascript uses prototypal inheritance. This means that Javascript does not distinguish between classes/prototypes and instances and, therefore, we can add our desired behavior directly to the instance. We use the exact same technique for adding a method to the prototype, but this time we simply add the function directly to the instance. Again, this function is a closure. And again, this function has access to the instance’s state using this.…
Closures are so ingrained in the language’s design that metaprogramming seems to happen without even trying. This little exercise has left me very excited about the potential of Javascript not only as a great language for the web, but also as a powerful server-side language. You should be excited too.”
