And it begins! First off, they’ve got the big three: wifi, power, and caffeine, you can tell Mike and Dave have done this before 
Day one is a half day Ruby tutorial and then what I’d describe as roughly the first seven chapters of AWR. The crowd is a little quiet but all in all some good questions. So far the real value is hearing Dave and Mike pipe in with tips and tricks. No matter how many times I see how fast you can get basic CRUD up with Rails, it never stops impressing me.
All in all, nothing too revolutionary today but I suspect tomorrow (again, this will be posted after the fact!) will really get things started. One thing I have to say - I really like the pace of the South. We’ve eaten out a couple of times now and each time they really stressed “y’all just hang around as long as you like.” I’m starting to understand what Southern hospitality is all about.
