On The Desired Complexity of Rails. Posted by Brian in Rails. August 21st, 2011). I attended Madison Ruby. This weekend and got a healthy dose of knowledge from some very talented presenters. Some of the talks focused heavily on improving our practices, especially in Rails applications. Jeff Casimir talked about making views nicer by introducing decorators. These are relatively simple to implement in a language like Ruby, but Jeff created a nice gem to make it even easier, called Draper. Proper use of th...

How to spy on a Hash in Ruby. February 24, 2010. Lets say youre dealing with a large Rails. Codebase and youve got a Hash. Stored in a global variable or a constant and you want to know who is changing that Hash. Heres a contrived example:. IMPORTANT STUFF = { :password = too many secrets } def change password(h) h[:password] = FAIL end def print password puts IMPORTANT STUFF[:password] end print password change password(IMPORTANT STUFF) print password. Easy, you do what Lester Freeman would do! So that ...

Rails on Edge: August 2008
http://railsonedge.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 15, 2008. Is a Rails plugin that allows you to push information out to the client, without them having to specifically request it. For certain domains, a push server is an excellent solution. Juggernaut uses a small bit of Flash to open up a flashxmlsocket from the browser to the push server, and it subscribes to the service. My roommate Taelor. He has also made a few blog posts about Juggernaut and using it to create a chatroom with rails at his blog. Links to this post. They talked about...

Rails on Edge: The Ruby Hoedown
http://railsonedge.blogspot.com/2008/08/ruby-hoedown.html
Tuesday, August 12, 2008. Last Thursday, my roommate and I packed and headed 3 hours south to the Ruby Hoedown. In Huntsville, AL. It was held at the Shelby Center at UAH on Friday and Saturday. This was my first programming conference, so I thought I might jot down a little bit about how it went. The first presentation was by the guys at Rails Envy. They talked about innovation in Ruby over the past year. I'm a big fan of these guys' podcasts and tutorials, and they gave a great presentation. Edit: Also...

View Testing 2.0 — err.the_blog

Ldquo; View Testing 2.0. September 18, 2007. I’ve come to realize how anti-web 2.0 this blog really is. Why are we, the authors, doing all the work? Where is the user generated content? How can we pretend to be Rails developers when we waste our time writing all these blog posts! No longer. Today all that changes. It’s time you guys start pulling your weight. Let’s Talk About Testing Views. I’ve been using a plugin I call body matcher. Out there, but more up-to-date with Hpricot and also pluginized.

RubyNation 2008 - Sean Mountcastle
http://seanmountcastle.com/blog/2008/08/08/rubynation-2008
Last weekend (Friday and Saturday), I attended RubyNation. 2008, the first regional Ruby conference in my area. The speakers were excellent and it was great to meet up with folks from the Ruby community who I haven’t seen in awhile. As always, I left feeling energized and excited about my Ruby projects. There were two main themes of the conference: the ‘official’ one was. Ceremony vs. Essence. While the ‘unofficial’ one was. Test all the fucking time. Opening Keynote: Ceremony vs. Essence. Welcome, Day 2.
