Ruby on Rails
“Ruby on Rails is a breakthrough in lowering the barriers of entry to programming. Powerful web applications that formerly might have taken weeks or months to develop can be produced in a matter of days.” -Tim O'Reilly, Founder of O'Reilly Media Read more quotes “Rails is the most well thought-out web development framework I’ve ever used. And that’s in a decade of doing web applications for a living. I’ve built my own frameworks, helped develop the Servlet API, and have created more than a few web servers from scratch.

Boiling Eggs - soft-cooked, medium-cooked, hard-cooked Baking Corner | Regional Foods | Cooking Articles | Hints & Tips | Culinary Dictionary | Newspaper Columns Perfect Boiled Eggs - How To Boil Eggs - How Long To Boil Eggs The simple and classic boiled egg - full of nature’s most perfect form of protein. It used to be that people were scared of eating eggs because of the cholesterol in the egg yolks. Now research has found that eggs also raise the good cholesterol that bodies need. According to the American Egg Board, the terms “hard-boiled” and “soft-boiled” eggs are really misnomers, because boiling eggs makes them tough and rubbery.

Welcome to RadRails, the Ruby on Rails authoring environment for Aptana Studio and Eclipse Free, open source IDE for Ruby and Rails applications RadRails is now included as part of Aptana Studio 3. No extra download required--now integrated into a single editor. Core Capabilities Humane Text Formats I write in plain text a lot. I want to put stuff on the web a lot. Oftentimes it’s the stuff I already wrote in plain text. I wondered if I could learn some conventions that would convert to XHTML for no extra work after I’d written the plain text. In fact, I am writing this article now in Ultraedit and later it will go on bluebones.net in HTML. And as I wrote ultraedit I wanted to put a link in for that very reason but wasn’t sure whether to or not because it then makes this file html and I’d need to go back and put in <p> tags and so on.

Basic User Authentication in Rails This article walks through creating a basic authentication system in rails. Update: If you liked this article Digg it! The question of user authentication comes up regularly on the rails mailing list and there are several articles and discussions around the web on whether it should be part of the rails framework. Its not included in rails and it is not likely to be. The reason given is that its difficult to generalize it to suit everybody. When I started using rails I tried out several different plugins and generators for user authentication.

Eclipse Profiler Plugin This is a plugin for the Eclipse platform which allows java code profiling. Project License Ruby on Rails Ruby on Rails emphasizes the use of well-known software engineering patterns and principles, such as active record pattern, convention over configuration (CoC), don't repeat yourself (DRY), and model–view–controller (MVC). History[edit] On December 23, 2008, Merb, another web application framework, was launched, and Ruby on Rails announced it would work with the Merb project to bring "the best ideas of Merb" into Rails 3, ending the "unnecessary duplication" across both communities.[7] Merb was merged with Rails as part of the Rails 3.0 release.[8][9] Rails 3.2 was released on January 20, 2012 with a faster development mode and routing engine (also known as Journey engine), Automatic Query Explain and Tagged Logging.[11] Rails 3.2.x is the last version that supports Ruby 1.8.7.[12] Rails 3.2.12 supports Ruby 2.0[13] Technical overview[edit] Like many web frameworks, Ruby on Rails uses the model–view–controller (MVC) pattern to organize application programming.

Ten mistakes in writing Like many editorial consultants, I’ve been concerned about the amount of time I’ve been spending on easy fixes that the author shouldn’t have to pay for. Sometimes the question of where to put a comma, how to use a verb or why not to repeat a word can be important, even strategic. But most of the time the author either missed that day’s grammar lesson in elementary school or is too close to the manuscript to make corrections before I see it. So the following is a list I’ll be referring to people *before* they submit anything in writing to anybody (me, agent, publisher, your mom, your boss). From email messages and front-page news in the New York Times to published books and magazine articles, the 10 ouchies listed here crop up everywhere. They’re so pernicious that even respected Internet columnists are not immune.
