An update to @peplin's work on https://gist.github.com/peplin/470321 that makes this gist compatible with the more modern AWS-SDK gem and new APIs, and updates for Chef 11.x (still works with 10.x too).

Can you help me understand the benefit of require.js?

I'm having trouble understanding the benefit of require.js. Can you help me out? I imagine other developers have a similar interest.

From Require.js - Why AMD:

The AMD format comes from wanting a module format that was better than today's "write a bunch of script tags with implicit dependencies that you have to manually order"

I don't quite understand why this methodology is so bad. The difficult part is that you have to manually order dependencies. But the benefit is that you don't have an additional layer of abstraction.

This Rack middleware for Rails3 lets you see a call-trace of the lines of ruby code in your application invoked during a single request. Only code within your app is considered (i.e. in the /app folder). This expands on my previous attempt (https://gist.github.com/3077744). Example of output in comments below.
require 'singleton'
# outputs a colored call-trace graph to the Rails logger of the lines of ruby code
# invoked during a single request.
#
# Example:
#
# 1) Make sure this file is loaded in an initializer
#
# 2) Add the following to your application.rb in Rails3:

Business models based on the compiled list at http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4924647. I find the link very hard to browse, so I made a simple version in Markdown instead.

Results of an Informal Twitter Survey on the State of the Art for Ruby SOAP Clients
Today I ran a quick twitter poll asking: "What is the state of the art
in Ruby SOAP clients".
Savon (http://savonrb.com/) was by far the big winner with 29
recommendations.
Surprisingly Soap4r actually got 6 votes, but most were accompanied by
comments like "the last time I used SOAP". It was also the only entry
that got negative votes (3) with comments like "soap4r is broken and
crap by the way".

Installing a Gem on Heroku from a Private GitHub Repo

Installing a Gem on Heroku from a Private GitHub Repo

Sometimes you want to use a gem on Heroku that is in a private repository on GitHub.

Using git over http you can authenticate to GitHub using basic authentication. However, we don't want to embed usernames and passwords in Gemfiles. Instead, we can use authentication tokens.

  1. Get an OAuth Token from GitHub

First you will need to get an OAuth Token from GitHub using your own username and "note"
