Ruby Tuples (and file scanning) | Matt Connolly's Blog
https://mattconnolly.wordpress.com/2014/04/19/ruby-tuples-and-file-scanning
Matt Connolly's Blog. My brain dumps here…. Ruby Tuples (and file scanning). On 19 April, 2014. I enjoyed Andrew Pontious’s recent episode of Edge Cases podcast talking about tuples. I’m doing a lot of Ruby these days, so I thought I’d add my two cents worth about using tuples in Ruby. It’s true that there is no separate tuple class, but Ruby arrays can do everything that tuples in Python can do. To assign two variables, you can do:. Which is equivalent to:.

Matt Connolly's Blog. My brain dumps here…. Ease out, you’re making me wait! On 17 June, 2013. I hate waiting for ease out animations to finish. When there is an ease-out, there is no boom. No event. No done. No “the animation has finished you can start interacting with the machine again.” You just look and go, “Oh, that looks nice.” and then think “Are you done? When can I do?

https://mattconnolly.wordpress.com/2013/12/12/522

However, I don’t really trust hard drives that much, and I happen to be a bit of a file system geek, so I backup my laptop an iMac to another machine that stores the data on ZFS. Starting a new backup is a pain, so what do I do? I have a script, which looks like this:. My current list of snapshots looks like this:. Matt@vault: $ zfs list...
