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.

Double Shot #332

DateFriday, November 14, 2008 at 1:16AM
Been having great fun coming up to speed with shoulda the last few days. I think it's finally starting to make sense to me, though surely there are best practices I'm still missing.

  • Spandex MemCache Store - An enhanced version of the default Rails memcache bits.

  • RubyGems 1.3.1 - New minor release. So far it hasn't caused any new issues for my major applications.

  • Concurrency is a Myth in Ruby - Well, yes, although JRuby does present a different situation.

  • Shoulda Testing Cheat Sheet - A useful thing to have around when you're learning.

  • ActiveRitalin - A Rails plugin built on the premise that "Rails find_by_sql is the devil."

  • The Rails Myths - DHH tries to set the record straight. Good luck with that.
