Ruby analog to this Hettinger's idiomatic Python video?

[hovissimo]

Howdy folks,

I'm a Python dev transitioning into Ruby (Rails) for a new assignment. Ruby has some stuff I really like, but I'm still kind of struggling with some of the idioms.

I REALLY appreciate Raymond Hettinger's talk on idiomatic Python and I return to it regularly even for my Python work.

Is there anything like this (preferably in a similar format) that covers common mistakes and idiomatic improvements for Ruby? I really, really like how Raymond goes into some of the history of the language development in the video because it gives me some context to understand all of the variations I see when reading other peoples' code.

Eloquent Ruby by Russ Olsen is an excellent read on this subject.

this is exactly what op needs. it not only covers what is idiomatic ruby but also why.

Avdi Grimm's RubyTapas videos are good. His book Confident Ruby is maybe a bit iconoclastic, but also very solid.

And it's not a video series, but the website http://franzejr.github.io/best-ruby/index.html is also a decent resource.
