Aaron Patterson (tenderlove), core team member of Ruby and RoR is hosting an AMA session today on Hashnode - [https://hashnode.com/post/i-am-aaron-patterson-tenderlove-core-team-member-of-ruby-and-rails-and-software-engineer-at-github-ask-me-anything-cjt6wngqx001hyis2rweup6wx](https://hashnode.com/post/i-am-aaron-patterson-tenderlove-core-team-member-of-ruby-and-rails-and-software-engineer-at-github-ask-me-anything-cjt6wngqx001hyis2rweup6wx)
The page is already open so you can submit your questions before the AMA officially starts.
Things he'd like to talk about:
* I've been working on a compacting GC for Ruby so we could talk about that.
* I've been looking at speeding up template rendering so we could also talk about that.
* Concurrency and parallelism in Ruby
* Making stuff with AVR chips
* Which mechanical switches are best
* Cat stuff
* How puns are created
His work on Ruby memory management is really interesting stuff. I’m torn between that and learning more about puns though… 😀
What a terrible format.
