We already have quite a bunch of query fragments we use to compose bigger queries, so I'd say in those cases it's more than justified.

While certainly possible we simply haven't really evaluated it yet in depth. In between releasing a bunch of upcoming features and upgrading Rails from 3.2 to 4.2 I'd rather wait with _also_ moving from ActiveRecord to Sequel for

I briefly looked at it, but seeing how young it was (and still is) I'd prefer not to bet any money on it for now, I'd rather use something tried and proven.

We didn't hire any experts, instead we educated ourselves on the matter. For example, one of the first steps we took was to run some rough benchmarks on Pg to see how it behaved compared to MySQL ( https://github.com/ole

It's not so much about not wanting to write/understand SQL (both are still very much required), but about composability. If you want to re-use bits of a SQL query written as a string literal your only option is string concatention

Unlikely, we've been running on Ruby for about 5 years and it's the one thing we feel safe relying on for our serious internet business. Actually, our entire setup is Ruby (safe from some shell scripts here and there).

Rubinius does not need Gem replacements like you need in JRuby, it still has a compatible CAPI. > [...] or they're behind recent MRI features. Part of this is due to MRI having literally no specification process at all. Python has t

Is there a way to see the available colour schemes without having to pay any money? Having created a colour scheme that's also called "Autumn" I'm wondering if it in this case would be mine or somebody else's (pro

Probably what annoys me most about this is that HTTPS was already there (I've been using it for a good month or two). This would imply that the costs were already spent, the infrastructure was in place and it was working just fine.

Hi, said author here. The particular article was written around 2 years ago (April 2011 to be exact) when crypto was still a fairly new concept to me. As a result there indeed are some flaws with the article. Having said that, some extra ex

I'm not sure what the author was thinking when writing this framework but it appears that he/she forgot everything about writing sane code. Below is a list of the things that stand out. 1. There's no sane directory structure, instead most o

Except that I don't want to, nor do most other developers out there. Not because they necessarily lack interest but because there's a pretty good chance they're busy enough already.

While the official website has it's flaws it actually doesn't look too bad. This design however uses the color red way too much and blocks such as the news feed take up too much space. I also don't see how this would directly benefit the Ru
