Jim Weirich on the differences between procs and lambdas in Ruby

Jim Weirich:

This is how I explain it… Ruby has Procs and Lambdas. Procs are created with Proc.new { }, lambdas are created with lambda {} and ->() {}.

In Ruby 1.8, proc {} creates lambda, and Ruby 1.9 it creates procs (don't ask).

Lambdas use method semantics when handling parameters, procs use assignment semantics when handling parameters.

This means lambdas, like methods, will raise an ArgumentError when called with fewer arguments than they were defined with. Procs will simply assign nil to variables for arguments that were not passed in.

chruby + ruby-build / mksh

chruby + ruby-build / mksh

  1. Install chruby and ruby-build with git. I keep their repo at ~/.chrb, their installation inside ~/local and my rubies at ~/.chrb/rubies.
  2. Copy this in your ~/.mkshrc file
# chruby + ruby-build
chrb() {
    source ~/local/share/chruby/chruby.sh
    unset RUBIES
    RUBIES=$(ls -d ~/.chrb/rubies/* 2> /dev/null)

A super simple Elixir server for sending Server Sent Events to the browser.

Generate a new Elixir project using mix and add cowboy and plug as dependencies in mix.exs:

  defp deps do
    [
      {:cowboy, "~> 1.0.0"},
      {:plug, "~> 0.8.1"}
    ]
  end
