Posting this here because I thought the many people who posted here, on github, and on twitter might want to know that there is a scholarship fund being started in Jim&#x27;s name to help pay for CS education. The fund is being administered by the Cincinnati Scholarship Foundation. If you&#x27;re a ruby developer, you know who Jim is, and you use his work whenever you type `rake` or use Flexmock.<p>More information on Jim: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Weirich" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Jim_Weirich</a>

I didn&#x27;t know that Jim had died. I think I may have been on vacation when the news would have broken.<p>His work on Ruby Koans helped me tremendously when learning Ruby. And of course there&#x27;s rake. This sort of thing feels like an appropriate match to his own contributions to the community. I couldn&#x27;t give much, but hopefully my little bit can help.<p>A few notes for the developers of the page: the form fields are wonky on Firefox (upstream on Aurora at least) and I&#x27;d suggest a country field for non-Americans.

I would rather give for a funding of free online classes that would benefit to millions.
