Eating Paleo

What Is Paleo?

Many plants are inedible, in their raw state contain toxins
10,000 years ago discovered that cooking these foods makes them edible
- Wheat, corn, barley, rice, sorghum, millet, oats, potatoes
Enabled us to more easily transport and store food
Allowed us to specialize in other fields since we didn't need to hunt, gather
Grains, Beans, Potatoes (GBP) have several things in common

Ruby on Clojure

Note: Remove example deps from the local mvn cache so they need to be installed for the demo

$ rm -r ~/.m2/repository/{com/steelcity, jruby}

First, create your amazing Ruby library that you'd like to use in Clojure. We must require 'java' and we must specify a java package because the default package cannot be imported into our Clojure project.

	def test_proc
	Proc.new { return }.call

	puts 'Never see this...'
	end

	def test_lambda
	lambda { return }.call

	puts 'Do see this...'

	require 'relations'

	class Employee
	extend Relations

	belongs_to :manager
	end

	def sleep_sort(*nums)
	sorted = []

	nums.map do \|n\|
	Thread.new { sleep n; sorted << n }
	end.map(&:join)

	sorted
	end

	describe 'rspec' do
	let(:sentance) { 'hello' }

	it "returns 'hello'" do
	sentance.should == 'hello'
	end
