Suppose I haven't any reference on hand, and I want to see all the methods in the built-in File class, is that simply available?

answered in Get list of a class' instance methods

Sure, try:
File.methods
And if you have the awesome_print gem installed then it formats the list nicely and provides extra information.

I have some struct Animal. I want to implement some methods on Vec<Animal>. I believe the correct way to do this is to create a new wrapper object called Animals. What is the correct object to make this wrapper, though? A struct? An enum? Something else?

I'm trying to understand the differences between Handle and HandleFunc.
Other than the differences, when would you use one over the other when building a Go web app?
https://golang.org/pkg/net/http/#Handle
You'd use whichever one fits your handler implementation. If you've implemented your handler as a function, you'd use HandleFunc; if you've implemented it as a type with a ServeHTTP method, you'd use Handle.

What is the purpose of inheriting from enable_shared_from_this? [duplicate]

What is the point for a class T to inherit from std::enable_shared_from_this<T> ? I can't seem to figure out why you wouldn't just create a std::shared_ptr<this> ?
Cppreference has a good example on why.
If you want to return a std::shared_ptr of this while *this is already owned by a std::shared_ptr and you don't return shared_from_this() but return a new std::shared_ptr<T>(this) instead then you will end up with 2 shared pointers that don't know they're both owning the same object and thus the use_count() will be wrong which will cause a double delete, which is undefined behavior.

Are ruby instance variables private? If not, how can I make them private? [duplicate]

Are instance variables private? I hear both claims that they are private and that they do not have access specifier [sic] though they behave as private. Can instance variables be made private?
There is a limited amount of 'privateness' granted to ruby instance variables, you can always access them from the outside through e.g. instance_variable_get (a public method) as outlined in this question. So depending on your desired level of 'privateness' the answer would be "they are private", "they are protected" or "they cannot be really private"
