Page 184 of why's (poignant) Guide to Ruby. Printed irb code where a Rabbit attacks with operators: "# attacking with boomerang! r ^ s", "# the hero's sword slashes! r / s", "# eating lettuce gives you life! r % s", "# you have three bombs! r * s". Below: "math operators are just methods!" Next to the hero's sword line, handwritten in purple capitals: "YOU CAN START THE HEROS JOURNEY ANYTIME! -@KDAIGLE".

A Rabbit fights with a boomerang, a sword, some lettuce and three bombs. Right next to "# the hero's sword slashes!", @kdaigle wrote in purple:

YOU CAN START THE HEROS JOURNEY ANYTIME! @KDAIGLE

He is the COO of GitHub. So the journey probably starts with git init.

The foxes started theirs years ago. They are still in chapter one. They stopped for lettuce.
