“How regular expressions made my dog less reactive” by Svenja Schäfer

This time around thoughtbot's Svenja Schäfer will be giving a remote talk called “How regular expressions made my dog less reactive”.

Let’s face it: Regular Expressions are intimidating. As soon as we know we have to deal with them, we open StackOverflow. Someone has the answer. We might not know if it’s correct, but at least we can write some tests around it.

What if I tell you, that my dog, Hugo, with serious fear for everything unknown, moving or not moving, big or small, became less reactive – with the help of regular expressions? This talk will give you the answer and a guideline to understand regular expressions.

Refreshments and pizza on the night will kindly be provided by our hosts IntelliCentrics UK. No previous Ruby experience required, and new comers to the group are always welcome.

The IntelliCentrics offices are in central Manchester on Spring Gardens. Tell reception you're here for the Ruby meetup and you'll be pointed in the right direction.
