Hey, everybody, and welcome to another episode of the Ruby Rogues podcast. This week on our panel, we have John Epperson. Hello, everybody. Luke Stutters. Hello. I'm Charles Maxwood from devchat.tv. Just want to shout out, go check out devinfluencers.com if you're looking to be a dev influencer. I guess that's pretty straightforward. We have a special guest this week, and that's Valentino Stoll.

Sure. I'm a software engineer at Doximity. I've been working there for...
quite some time now i've been working on ruby quite a long time and it's kind of my go-to crutch of a language if you will but i really enjoy uh hacking away on embedded systems with ruby that's been my my latest craze and you know i i've really been digging deep into the ruby core library and kind of just exploring it and uh it's really not that scary so i'm hoping to kind of

To prepare for this episode, I also bought a collection of Raspberry Pi related devices.
Oh, there you go.
