Thanks! Are you a native speaker? |

Hi, no I'm not a native speaker but I've been learning and using English for quite a long time. I base my edits not only on my experience, but I double-check most of them with various dictionaries and on the internet. When it comes to your second question, it's a mistake on my part. It should be either "The personal preference of the author..."(Original) or "My personal preference as the author..."(What I was going for), but both of them are correct and upon giving it some thought, I think the original works better in context. I'm also new to GitHub so sorry for my messy commits and pull requests, still trying to get the hang of it ;) |

Is it really wrong to omit the person here?

I read this sentence to myself a few times and I think it flows much better this way. It's just a gut feeling though.

The gendered language here (i.e. "guys") seems really clunky and old fashioned. This could be changed to "Ruby devs", "Rubyists" etc. I'm also noticing many places in the tutorial where, for example, the user is referred to as "he".

Great fixes, thanks, except that "simply things done simply" correction.
I saw such phrase in many places.
