Q&A about the _method_ meaning?

<Q>In the file lib/find.rb (1.9.3):
   def find(*paths) # :yield: path
         block_given? or return enum_for(__method__, *paths)
          ...........

<A>Kernel#__method__ returns the name of the method being defined as a
symbol (or nil if called outside a method definition). In that case it
returns :find.

Kernel#__callee__ is similar, but it returns the name of the method as
used by the caller in that particular invocation. In that case the
returned symbol could be different if the caller invoked an alias.

The benefit of not hard-coding the method name is similar to not
hard-coding a constant name in code like

    self.class.class_method

You just do not rely on the constant name of the object's class and
the code has one less dependency in case of a refactor.

Similarly, you could hard-code :find, it would not be the end of the
world, but __method__ makes that unnecessary. If it is computable,
better not to repeat it.
