"I just eyeballed Ruby and C, and I think you're better off not knowing a lot of this, and just keeping a whiffle bat next to your desk to use on any teammate that uses them."
Some of the Ruby things are quite useful and not all that obscure for many of us. Others are fugly, or clever for the sake of it. In any event, it's good to know why these things work, even if you don't use them.
