Re: Need people to give feedback

The ToC might be cognitively overwhelming; an expandable index might be a
way to gradually expand sections.

Tips about security might help as later, end-of-chapter content, such as
untrusted input, eval/exec, YAML, Marshal. Make it clear almost all Ruby
gems are cryptographically-unsigned and offer zero security... a major APT
risk.

- Explain how $LOAD_PATH works
- The difference between load and require
- Write tests first and small refactors
- DRb still works
- Pry > irb
- How to make a Rails railtie gem
- How to make a cli gem
- minitest specs

Intermediate topics:

- parallel gem

Advanced topics:

- Writing a native C extension
- Why chruby (+ ruby-install) is superior to rvm: It doesn't patch cd and
is completely environment-variable based
- foreman?, god? => foreman_god
- sequel for projects that don't require full AR
- trailblazer + rails
- concurrent-ruby
- Making UI widgets with ncurses
- absolute_time instead of benchmark
- More performance? Try crystal
