Mongoid identity map and fibers
# See: https://github.com/mongoid/mongoid/blob/identity-map/spec/unit/mongoid/identity_map_spec.rb#L367
# In order for the identity map to work when using fibers the
# entire unit of work must happen on the same fiber since it's using
# thread locals for storage.
# The following example is correct:
fiber = Fiber.new do
Person.find(id)
Person.find(id) # This query hits the identity map.

RESOLVE SHORT URLS before storing. Short URLs are for microblogging; you should never actually keep them around.
require 'net/http'
# WARNING do not use this; it works but is very limited
def resolve url
res = Net::HTTP.get_response URI(url)
if res.code == '301' then res['location']
else url.to_s
end

# Implementation of the MetaWeblog API for my personal Ruby static blog generator.
# This is not even nearly idiomatic Ruby. There are all kinds of issues.
# (What's with the method interiors all being mushed-up together?)
# But -- it's also worked flawlessly for five years without my having to edit it.
# It won't work for anyone else as-is — but if it helps anyone
# to do a MetaWeblog API implementation, then cool.

When Active Record Child Objects are Autosaved in Rails

belongs_to:

  1. Assigning an object to a belongs_to association does not automatically save the object. It does not save the associated object either.

has_one:

  1. When you assign an object to a has_one association, that object is automatically saved (in order to update its foreign key).
  2. In addition, any object being replaced is also automatically saved, because its foreign key will change too
  3. If either of these saves fails due to validation errors, then the assignment statement returns false and the assignment itself is cancelled.
  4. If the parent object (the one declaring the has_one association) is unsaved (that is, new_record? returns true) then the child objects are not saved. They will automatically when the parent object is saved.

DKIM + SPF + Sendmail for multiple domains (Ubuntu)
DKIM is DomainKeys Identified Mail and is used in mail servers, such as Postfix or Sendmail to sign e-mails and thus authenticating the sender so that a forgery can be detected. It also reduces the possibility of an e-mail being flagged as spam, but it's not a definite prevention.
A much simpler method is using SPF (Sender Policy Framework) which, in a nutshell, verifies the sender IP address.
According to the internet, using both should result to ????, PROFIT !!!.
SPF does not need a specific configuration. Whitelisted servers are listed in a DNS record, TXT or SPF, and an example record is:
example.com. IN TXT "v=spf1 a mx ~all"
