Simply URL encode string with Linux/Bash/Shell tools

Reference https://stackoverflow.com/a/34407620/13287790

$ printf %s 'encode this'|jq -sRr @uri
encode%20this

$ jq -rn --arg x 'encode this' '$x|@uri'
encode%20this

# -r (--raw-output) outputs the raw contents of strings instead of JSON string literals. -n (--null-input) doesn't read input from STDIN.

When should you use DateTime and when should you use Time?

When should you use DateTime and when should you use Time?

It's a common misconception that [William Shakespeare][1] and [Miguel de Cervantes][2] died on the same day in history - so much so that UNESCO named April 23 as [World Book Day because of this fact][3]. However because England hadn't yet adopted [Gregorian Calendar Reform][4] (and wouldn't until [1752][5]) their deaths are actually 10 days apart. Since Ruby's Time class implements a [proleptic Gregorian calendar][6] and has no concept of calendar reform then there's no way to express this. This is where DateTime steps in:

>> shakespeare = DateTime.iso8601('1616-04-23', Date::ENGLAND)
=> Tue, 23 Apr 1616 00:00:00 +0000
>> cervantes = DateTime.iso8601('1616-04-23', Date::ITALY)
=> Sat, 23 Apr 1616 00:00:00 +0000

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.

Fix OpenSSL certificate errors on Ruby 2.0

The reason why you might get certificate errors in Ruby 2.0 when talking HTTPS is because there isn't a default certificate bundle that OpenSSL (which was used when building Ruby) trusts.

Update: this problem is solved in edge versions of rbenv and RVM.

$ ruby -rnet/https -e "Net::HTTP.get URI('https://github.com')"
net/http.rb:917:in `connect': SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 state=SSLv3
  read server certificate B: certificate verify failed (OpenSSL::SSL::SSLError)

You can work around the issue by installing a certificate bundle that you trust. I trust Mozilla and curl.
