About foreign keys - http://guides.rubyonrails.org/migrations.html#active-record-... About Lazy Loading at field level it is not really needed in most scenarios. You can do it with your own code if you wanted it that way. Edge case scenar

I don't know why JRuby + Rails gets no love. JRuby is similar to Groovy but the Rails ecosystem is far far better than Grails. I have worked on all three frameworks and I think - - The Rails ORM (ActiveRecord) is far more superior and matur

Looks nice! I wish it gives support for Linux as well. Good screen sharing tools for Linux are virtually non-existent (and I am often ridiculed for it).

Nice work, great design. Just one thing imho, the font size of "Athletable" is less than the description so your site name doesn't really "hit" me. The first thing I read on your site is "Pool, ping pong ...". I would recommend making "Athl

Bal Thackeray has nothing to do with religion, he was more like a far right politician. In India there is a huge celebrity cult (people get crazy about politicians / actors / sportsmen) and Bal T's followers / goons virtually own Mumbai. I

I will be happy if someone corrects me but JDK 7 has some bugs with InvokedDynamics and it is turned off by default. These bugs have been fixed in JDK 8 (beta so far). In the future, even if JRuby team does only bug fixes, JRuby will get fa

I agree. I would do the same but I couldn't find any examples of doing this on the web. One could potentially use Redis or a AMQP as a middleman to integrate node.js's push with a Rails app. If I get sometime on the weekend I would like to

The main reason Node.js is gaining popularity is because it is blazing fast, scales very well due to its IO + event driven architecture and it has the best support for websockets (see socket.io). On the flip side, code can be hard to mainta

Well, I even made an app on this a while back. https://github.com/rocky-jaiswal/rafflerv2 would have blogged about it if I knew it would make it to the front page of HN. #Facepalm
