a simple git branching model

a simple git branching model (written in 2013)

This is a very simple git workflow. It (and variants) is in use by many people. I settled on it after using it very effectively at Athena. GitHub does something similar; Zach Holman mentioned it in this talk.

Update: Woah, thanks for all the attention. Didn't expect this simple rant to get popular.

A flavor of Hexagonal Rails with factory created use cases
class UsersController < ApplicationController
def create
create_user = UserUseCaseFactory.create_user(Responder.new(self)
create_user.do(params[:email], params[:password[)
end
class Responder < SimpleDelegator
def success(user)
render json: UserSerializer.new(user)

Support for PostgreSQL `interval` type in Rails 4. Although ActiveRecord supports `interval` by default, it turns it into a string (and tells Postgres the column is type string, too). This means you don't get any proper interval goodness. By sticking this code into an initialiser, ActiveRecord will create proper `interval` column types in Postgr…

# This will force ActiveRecord to create proper `interval` column types in PostgreSQL

# def change
# add_column :leases, :period, :interval

# This applies to a generated `schema.rb` file too.

# No special OID type is applied to an `interval` type. Rails will treat it as a string, although

Steps to install a Comodo PositiveSSL certificate with Nginx.

Setting up a SSL Cert from Comodo

I use Namecheap.com as a registrar, and they resale SSL Certs from a number of other companies, including Comodo.

These are the steps I went through to set up an SSL cert.

Purchase the cert

The Magic Tricks of Testing

Sandi Metz

  • Many people say "I hate my tests"
  • They kill your productivity when they're slow
  • A little change can break your tests (even if they shouldn't)
  • They're expensive
  • They are misery incarnate
  • Just delete some tests
  • You may have too many tests testing the wrong tests
