A Fresh Cup is Mike Gunderloy's software development weblog, covering Ruby on Rails and whatever else I find interesting in the universe of software. I'm a full-time Rails developer and contributor, available for long- or short-term consulting, with solid experience in working as part of a distributed team. If you'd like to hire me, drop me a line. I'm also the author of Rails Rescue Handbook and Rails Freelancing Handbook.

Double Shot #307

Now I know that getting to the Rapleaf API from Rails is trivial. I may never need this knowledge again.

  • Tunnel 1.1 - Nothing to do with Rails, really; just a cute game for MacBooks that uses the accelerometer as a control device.

  • Is the Hourly Model Broken? - Musings from RedMonk's Stephen O'Grady. He's writing from the analyst perspective, but this applies just as much to developers.

  • Release 0.8.0 - Of the Mack framework, that is.

  • Splitting models into several smaller files in Rails - I'm personally not convinced big models are a problem (I'd rather look in one large file than 6 small ones when tracing code). But if you disagree, here's a solution for loading the pieces.

  • Can't activate rubyforge (=0.4.5) problems - Adding a bit of Google juice to this solution (uninstall and reinstall) since I ran smack into the problem tonight.
