Gazing into an endless pool | Richard Hart

http://www.ur-ban.com/2015/08/07/gazing-into-an-endless-pool

Facebook.com/richard.e.hart. Gazing into an endless pool. It’s easy to know you need to take action but difficult to actually do. Being self-aware of these issues is the main start to overcoming them. Often times when you catch yourself not doing anything, even just phrasing your thoughts can lead to better outcomes. Instead of thinking “Why can’t I get this task done? 8221;, a better question might be “What would be the least I can do right now to make a start? August 7, 2015. August 7, 2015.

Naming service classes in Rails | Richard Hart

http://www.ur-ban.com/2015/07/31/naming-service-classes-in-rails

Facebook.com/richard.e.hart. Naming service classes in Rails. One of the core ideas of Rails is convention over configurations. Models go in app/models, controllers go in app/controllers and views go in app/views. The danger is that we stick to those conventions no matter what and we end up either with fat controllers, fat models or even worse a mixture of both. And noticed that they’ve done exactly that, everything is named in a consistent manner. I think many may dislike that but it makes thi...

What is street photography | Richard Hart

http://www.ur-ban.com/2015/08/03/what-is-street-photography

Facebook.com/richard.e.hart. What is street photography. Street photography is perhaps one of the most difficult genres to nail down. Wikipedia. What does that exactly mean? I spend a lot of time on the street photography subreddit. And the submissions amaze me to no end, because they fall so far of the mark of what I consider a street photograph to be. My suspicion is that many take the name “street photography” in a literal sense that it’s a photo taken on the street. August 3, 2015.

BEM CSS | Richard Hart

http://www.ur-ban.com/2015/07/23/bem-css

Facebook.com/richard.e.hart. All too often I find that CSS quickly becomes a real tangle of clashing styles and names. No matter how hard I try something always ends up breaking the styles of something else. Moving to SASS helped a lot but I find on the flip side I end up with styling that’s overly nested. Article / Block .article body / Element .article- featured / Modifier. I’m not going to go into much detail as there are already some great. July 23, 2015. Your education and your children.

Abbreviation in Ruby - Plough => Ruby

http://ploughthroughruby.co.uk/2014/01/10/abbreviation-in-ruby.html

Ruby’s standard library is filled with several unique, non-standard classes/modules, one such module is Abbrev. Abbrev calculates the set of unique abbreviations for a given set of strings. The following code demonstrates it properly:. Pp Abbrev.abbrev(['ruby', 'rules']). This code produces the following output where all the keys are abbreviated and unique, and point to their respective words. Pp ['ruby', 'rules'].abbrev. I found a couple of use cases of the Abbrev module on Google:. For a bar graph.
