If you work with Ruby, you should know that arguments in methods can be set to a default value, for example:
```
def perform(arg: "d")
# .
end
```

But did you know that you can use instance variables as default values, like this:
```
class MyCls
def initialize(arg); @arg = arg; end
def perform(arg = @arg); end
end
```

Or other arguments of this method:
```
module MyMod
def self.perform(a = nil, arg: a); end
end
```

#Abortionrights #advocates are optimistic, as #liberal #justices control the #court, with one openly supporting #abortionrights on the #campaign #trail. Monday's arguments are largely a #formality, with a #ruling expected in weeks.

• Conversational back-and-forth is a terrible format for resolving disagreements in good faith.
• Bullet points are helpful for making disagreements productive.
