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 #970

Nice to see the uptick in tent.is signups yesterday. Now to watch people try to figure out what it is (hint: see tent.io).

  • App.net pricing changes - $36/year instead of $50/year for this non-advertiser-supported Twitter alternative.
  • JOSNiq - "XQuery for JSON".
  • Sidekiq Pro - "Advanced functionality for Sidekiq", an attempt to layer a paying product on top of an open source one. Features batches, notifications, and metrics.
  • TypeScript - Missing CoffeeScript in your Microsoft toolchain? Now there's an alternative.
  • CIBox - Combination code-sharing and continuous integration service.
  • sidekiq-failures - Adds a tab to the Sidekiq Web UI to keep explicit track of failed jobs.
  • Tres - Mobile web development framework based on backbone.js.
