Ruby itself might run fine on Windows, but the fact is that the majority of Ruby developers use Mac or Linux and cares exactly _zero_ about Windows, which means that a lot of libraries etc. doesn't work on Windows. So, while possible, usi

The trick with mapping Caps Lock to Ctrl is that you can use it for all your regular Ctrl-shortcuts. At least on MacBooks the regular Ctrl is placed totally impossible. But yeah, I /can't/ use others computers without getting utterly frustr

In English, maybe. In Danish there are plenty of jk's in actual writing. Ctrl+[ is terribly inaccessible on a bunch of international keyboards. Ctrl-C is the good one, really.

It's a shame that all tutorials apparently tells you to use ESC to get out of insert mode. The real way to do it is Ctrl-c, which keeps you on the home row. It works even better if you map Caps Lock to Ctrl.

1.9.1 isn't supported: http://edgeguides.rubyonrails.org/3_0_release_notes.html#rai... That said, I am using 1.9.1 in production (non-Rails project) and have had almost no issues so far, apart from a few libraries that had to be updated,

Except, in Denmark, telephony companies, public transport etc. has traditionally been state-owned companies. Recently that–somewhat–changed, though.

Also, included in the CS-experience is the socializing – nobody wants to host someone who's just taking the "free couch"-part, so actually there is compensation included, but it is not money.

Wait, when was advanced algebra required for web work?

If they let me show up with massive hangovers, allow me to drink at work, don't care that I smoke inside and miss half of my deadlines. Sure. Otherwise, stop fucking using that term. Great thing I'm my own boss, I guess.

CouchSurfing is a nice example of that. Sure, there have probably been some episodes, but for the majority it works really great.

Funny to see this one downvoted.

Finding a cofounder that you 'click' with is damn difficult no matter where you are.

You read the part where he said he has lived in the U.S. for 8+ years, right?

4 hours a day, 4 days a week. Then I get drunk. 8 hours a day, 3 days a week.

But they can't look up "tweet" in a standard English dictionary, at least not stating this kind of meaning - that is, an update on Twitter (don't hang me up on the specifics, Dane here.)

I attended the Copenhagen edition last month. While I was sceptical, the weekend turned out to be a lot of fun, and we are actually five people working full-time on what we created that weekend, with what looks like a bright future ahead of

In reality, web development is quite a hostile environment, in my opinion. Too many different technologies. Better to keep him 'sandboxed' in a single environment, say, Ruby. The great thing about web development of course, is that it's eas

The trick with the free apps are, that you only have one dyno. And after a certain amount of inactivity it will be shut down. Next time somebody tries to reach your app, it will automatically be started again. So, the majority of these free

I'll be attending the Copenhagen edition. This could be a great event.

Get a proper spam filter. Your mail address probably is out there already.

Writing is definitely a skill. You need that to write good blogs. Being able to create an account on Wordpress.com and write some random bullshit doesn't really count.

In Denmark there's a three-strike system to prevent that.

There won't be a market. Yet. It will take a lot more momentum before it happens. Ruby has Heroku and Engine Yard. But the Ruby ecosystem is much larger.

Buenos Aires is cheap and awesome, and you'll get along with English. You will probably end up spending more time being drunk than working, though.

Not that rewriting NotePad should ever be any daunting task.
