The terminal solution is handy but sometimes it fails because you could end up with a sign in link or some type of link with a very long token that wraps to multiple lines making it impossible to click. Rails also prints emails to the termi

I've been using Hotwire[0] for a while now (Turbo + Stimulus) which works with any back-end, it's been great. It builds on everything you already know and doesn't require rewriting your app. Everything is treated as progressi

I've never seen Cucumber used in a big project after having done contract work for a long time but the idea of having user stories defined in a systematic way that's only used as extra context / documentation for complex feat

This is true. Do you have a use case where being off by a few frames might be a deal breaker? Personally I've created dozens of clips using this method and it always turns out ok. It gives you about ~1 second precision on where you wan

I love ffmpeg, a single command of `ffmpeg -ss 01:15:42 -to 01:16:00 -i example.mp4 -c copy output.mp4` will let you create a video clip at a certain point in time from a larger video without decoding/encoding it. I wrote a blog post a

Yep that's a really good one. Not being blocked helps a lot for getting things done.

Jose, are there still plans to modify Elixir at the language level to be potentially closer to the Python implementation? I know you started a proposal once around the time when we made that repo.

That is a big change. After June 2023 Docker Compose v1 will officially no longer be supported. I probably won't switch right then and there to the new filename but that is at least one ball moving in the right direction to switch over

It's not included with these projects, as someone else mentioned in a reply to you, it can be handled in a number of different spots. For example, a load balancer running 1 level above your server or perhaps nginx running directly on y

Nope, I haven't run any Go code in production that was running in Docker. Go's ecosystem is also pretty fragmented so it would be difficult to create a solution that lots of folk would be happy with. I get the impression most folk

By default yes but you can change a single environment variable to not run Postgres or Redis through Docker Compose. You can also very easily choose to run Puma and Sidekiq on different servers. It leverages Docker Compose v2 profiles. I&#x

Thanks. Yep I've seen mrsk and even briefly chatted with DHH about it a day or 2 after he open sourced it. I have mixed feelings: On one hand I think it's fantastic Rails is starting to take on deployment officially. This is going

I think if this happened in 2014 it would be more accepted as a footgun since Docker was much less known then. But in 2021 they: - Ran their main DB in Docker without knowing the fundamentals of Docker - Shipped it to production w

I've noticed this trend with folks who move from Rails to Phoenix. At some point they switch and then never look at Rails again even if it's been years since they stopped using it. It's not like Rails was frozen in time at 20

I like using `rails middleware` as an example because it's true, tons of things in that list are important. A good example of this is: Rack::MethodOverride Try making your non-JS server rendered view functions and HTML form submissions

I like the efforts here and even got a chance to contribute some patches to Rails around its recent Docker integrations. I'm also not a huge fan of Kubernetes until you need to use it, in which case it's remarkably good at the pro

On paper I agree with all of that but in practice folks who are getting laid off already had access to all of those things every day. Why do you trust them every day but not on the day of being laid off? Unless you're extremely close f
