Hey tenderlove, what other resources you would recommend?

I've tried once, but felt the barrier to contribute to ruby-core to be too big, you'd also need to understand how ruby-core rubymine is organised and so on.

I'd love to write a guide about it, if I only knew. I bet many other engineers faced a similar issue and dropped out at some point.

While RUM is out of date, I still think it's an excellent resource. Some of the information in the book may be out of date, but I think it's an excellent place to start when you want to jump in to Ruby's source. Basically, after reading RUM the best place to go is to start reading the source.

That said, it would be really great if Pat (or someone besides me) published an update version of RUM
