We master space and time this week (discussing a book of the same name), deep dive with ActiveRecord which loves blocks, live stream with Rails 4.0, and discuss Team Dashboard, respond_to_missing?, Synack, and Try iOS.

This episode is sponsored by Top Ruby Jobs. Everyone deserves to love their job (and it's probably in Ruby).
