Since it’s now at news stands - and apparently some one at work arleady sent out links - I figured the least I could do is post a link on my own blog….
Here’s my article in the new Linux Journal on Ruby Gems

We’re starting a series of brew days today all using the same yeast. Today it is Verboten Vrukt (Forbidden Fruit). It starts with an SG of ~1.090 - so we needed a big starter to make sure this thing ferments properly. I ended up propagating about 5 liters of yeast. I’m trying an experiment where I bottle some of that yeast as slurry and use it to brew the other batches of beer. The next two batches will be variations on a traditional Wit Beer. One is very simple - the other is a little complicated - but both are still going to be extract + grains. I’m actually going to be filming those brew days for a class on home brewing I’m going to be teaching.
Here’s a picture of me with the starter. Yes that is a Coors Light Shirt. Some friends got it for me as a gift and made we wear it around (as a joke). I figured it is perfectly appropriate to wear it on brew day.

Ok I’m switch back to Linux for development. (I’ll probably be stuck doing Windows/Rails tech support for some time - but at least my operating environment is stable again).
I’m up and running on Dapper. (Yeah I know it isn’t official yet) They continue to polish and I love it. They even managed to fully support my Broadcom wireless card in my laptop (goodbye ndiswrappers).
One small annoyance - when you setup your Ubuntu box - it defaults to nano as the editor. I know someone who probably loves that. I prefer vi(m). I finally found how to change it.
sudo update-alternatives --config editor
Who knew it could be so easy :) I was assuming you had to modify an environment variable or something…..
