OBSOLETE

This entire guide is based on an old version of Homebrew/Node and no longer applies. It was only ever intended to fix a specific error message which has since been fixed. I've kept it here for historical purposes, but it should no longer be used. Homebrew maintainers have fixed things and the options mentioned don't exist and won't work.

I still believe it is better to manually install npm separately since having a generic package manager maintain another package manager is a bad idea, but the instructions below don't explain how to do that.

Fixing npm On Mac OS X for Homebrew Users

Installing node through Homebrew can cause problems with npm for globally installed packages. To fix it quickly, use the solution below. An explanation is also included at the end of this document.

How-to setup a simple git push deployment

These are my notes basically. At first i created this gist just as a reminder for myself. But feel free to use this for your project as a starting point. If you have questions you can find me on twitter @thomasf https://twitter.com/thomasf This is how i used it on a Debian Wheezy testing (https://www.debian.org/releases/testing/)

Rails Generating & Scaffolding

Rails' use of strict naming conventions means a lot of core code SHOULD be in the same format whoever writes it? It could be written by a friend, colleague or a computer... it shouldn't matter because the same Rails rules apply to everyone.

This means that Rails can actually do some tasks for you! It can actually build things and write code on your behalf...

Coming from another language like PHP, this can seem like magic.

Fluxo de Trabalho do Git para Pequenas Equipes

Primeiro, crie um branch de desenvolvimento no seu repositório local:

$ git checkout --track origin/development

Trabalhe em sua tarefa normalmente. Lembre-se de fazer commits frequentes para manter o rastro do seu progresso.

A Primer on Ruby Method Lookup

Method lookup is a simple affair in most languages without multiple inheritance. You start from the receiver and move up the ancestors chain until you locate the method. Because Ruby allows you to mix in modules and extend singleton classes at runtime, this is an entirely different affair.

I will not build contrived code to exemplify the more complicated aspects of Ruby method lookup, as this will only serve to confuse the matter.

When you pass a message to an object, here is how Ruby finds what method to call:

1. Look within singleton class

Install OS X 10.10 Yosemite in VirtualBox

Due to the high usage of this guide and the lack of comfort in Gist's commenting area, I decided to make a blog post out of this which you can find here:

	#!/bin/bash

	# Source: http://blog.nonuby.com/blog/2012/07/05/copying-env-vars-from-one-heroku-app-to-another/

	while read key value; do

	String input = "123,456";
	int firstVal, secondVal;

	for (int i = 0; i < input.length(); i++) {
	if (input.substring(i, i+1) == ",") {
	firstVal = input.substring(0, i).toInt();
	secondVal = input.substring(i+1).toInt();

	* VH and VW units can cause issues on iOS devices: http://caniuse.com/#feat=viewport-units
	*
	* To overcome this, create media queries that target the width, height, and orientation of iOS devices.
	* It isn't optimal, but there is really no other way to solve the problem. In this example, I am fixing
