It seems like every word and word combination you can think of is already taken on Rubygems by a 0.0.1 gem that was last published 14 years ago, has next to no downloads and the author has disappeared from the face of the earth.

Can the community come up with a better process for freeing these up?

It was indeed naive, a multi-threaded test script proved it wasn’t atomic 😕

Is something like this too naive?

get_or_set = hash[:key] ||= value

It avoids the block, but not sure about the GVL protection…

It will loop endlessly between :waxing_crescent and :third_quarter and never back to :new_moon, which would otherwise finally return from the loop.

Line 8 should be changed from waxing to waning!

Though in your follow up example where you’re taking in attributes of an entity such as a Person, I think all Keyword arguments are best.

It depends, but usually:

- Positional arguments if there’s only one argument.
- Positional argument for the main argument along with Keyword arguments for additional, optional arguments.

I avoid relying on Positional arguments when there are multiple arguments unless their meaning is very clear!
