NuGet Package of the Week: Humanizer makes .NET data types more human - Scott Hanselman
http://www.hanselman.com/blog/NuGetPackageOfTheWeekHumanizerMakesNETDataTypesMoreHuman.aspx
NuGet Package of the Week: Humanizer makes .NET data types more human. April 9, '14. The NET BCL (Base Class Library) moves too slow, IMHO. That's why NuGet. And NuGet packages are so nice. It's a joy to find a rightly sized library like NodaTime. For example. It's a better date and time API for .NET. Microsoft should just use it, it's lovely. Another nicely-sized Open Source library, and the focus for today's blog post, is Humanizer. From http:/ humanizr.net. Underscored input string is turned into sent...

No products in the cart. April 2, 2006. May 12, 2012. By Brendon J. Wilson. Ruby SOAP4R WSDL Hell. I’ve been spending a bit of time lately playing around with Ruby on Rails. The last couple days, giving it a bit of a test to see what everyone’s raving about and understand how it could be used. Overall it’s a pretty impressive framework, and worth a little time investment to give it a whirl. For those without the patience, I highly recommend viewing the impressive presentation. Just a disclaimer: I’...

Once it is created, right-click ‘Example Project’ and select ‘Add to stack’ - R...The final two notebooks to create are...

Forget the resume, kill on the cover letter – Signal v. Noise
https://signalvnoise.com/posts/1748-forget-the-resume-kill-on-the-cover-letter
Signal v. Noise. Forget the resume, kill on the cover letter. A great resume will get you not-rejected, a great cover letter will get you hired. That’s the conclusion I’m left with after going through the applications for our junior support programmer position. Most people can make their resume look reasonable which makes it a poor qualifier. We don’t believe in years of irrelevance. Strike a tone in tune with the company. It also means that you really have to tailor your tone to the company. Pulling...

Using Capybara in Rails 3 | techiferous
http://techiferous.com/2010/04/using-capybara-in-rails-3
Using Capybara in Rails 3. April 23rd, 2010. The capybara, a native of South America, is the largest rodent in the world. Makes it easier to write integration tests. Its syntax is very similar to Webrat’s. The main difference between Capybara and Webrat is that Capybara has more architectural flexibility. It works with a variety of JavaScript-enabled browser simulators. And–because it’s based on Rack. Update: Apparently Webrat is now. Installing Capybara in Rails 3. Note: I don’t use Cucumber.
