18:30: Intro to ruby metaprogramming - part 2
Continuing our exploration of meta programming, we will recap part one and then:
- Blocks, procs & lambdas
- Ruby life cycle hooks (include, extend) to glue all the other stuff
- A dive into real life example (featuring the Timeasure gem from previous lecture) to connect the dots

19:30: What's new in Ruby 2.6
Mentioned explicitly by Matz in RubyConf LA few weeks ago and being featured on Ruby weekly this lecture comes to Ruby Underground :-)
Ruby 2.1 was released on Christmas 2013 and the tradition followed since with each new version released in the following Christmas, what leads me to believe that Ruby 2.6 will be released next month. So let’s see what’s new in this version of Ruby.
