New Machine

What I do after I do a fresh install. Things are sorta grouped by type.

General Config

1. Start downloading Xcode
2. Disable auto-bright and turn brightness all the way up
3. Turn up trackpad tracking
4. Disable trackpad pinch open & close

class Parent
  belongs_to :child, :autosave => true, :polymorphic => true
end

class SomethingController
  
  def create
    @parent = Parent.new(params[:parent])
    @parent.child = child
    if @parent.save

#!/usr/bin/env ruby

require "shellwords"

def run_tags
  `ctags -R . 2>/dev/null`
end

def project_dir
  File.basename Dir.pwd

Installing older Rubies (e.g. Ruby 1.8.7) on a clean install of Lion and Xcode

The latest Xcode and Command Line Tools for Xcode changes the default compiler from gcc to the llvm compiler. Only ruby-1.9.3-p125+ is LLVM ready. So, you will have to install gcc-4.2 to compile older versions of Ruby. More detail here https://github.com/mxcl/homebrew/wiki/Custom-GCC-and-cross-compilers.

This worked for me. I hope it saves some people time:

brew install https://raw.github.com/adamv/homebrew-alt/master/duplicates/apple-gcc42.rb
CC=/usr/local/bin/gcc-4.2 rvm install 1.8.7
