Programming Ruby 3.2 (5th Edition): B1.0 page 185, response not OK for me

Page 185, last example

response = http.get('/book/ruby3/programming-ruby-1-9')

doesn’t work for me, the response.message is Moved Permanently.

I have no knowledge about talking to networks.

I have no output with URI.open('http://pragprog.com') on page 186, nor with https.

First Post!

So, that’s a very weird example, in that the code sample (which comes from the older version) hardcodes the output for some reason. Anyway, I didn’t fix it on first pass, because I didn’t have a URL for the new version, but I do have it now, and I should see what happens if I let it run for real. (the code also isn’t in line with Standard Ruby (single-quote strings) so I should clean that up as well.

Thanks
