MongoMapper query for not null column.

Goal

"Using MongoMapper to find all users that :name column is not null", this is all I want.

Make a PUT request with jQuery.ajax()
$.ajax({
type: 'POST', // Use POST with X-HTTP-Method-Override or a straight PUT if appropriate.
dataType: 'json', // Set datatype - affects Accept header
url: "http://example.com/people/1", // A valid URL
headers: {"X-HTTP-Method-Override": "PUT"}, // X-HTTP-Method-Override set to PUT.
data: '{"name": "Dave"}' // Some data e.g. Valid JSON as a string
});
/* Some clients do not support PUT or it’s difficult to send in a PUT request. For these cases, you could POST the request with a request header of X-HTTP-Method-Override set to PUT. What this tells the server is that the intended request is a PUT. Obviously this relies on the API you are accessing making use of the X-HTTP-Method-Override Header.*/

The most important principle: Fairness, and the perception of fairness, is much more valuable than owning a large stake. Almost everything that can go wrong in a startup will go wrong, and one of the biggest things that can go wrong is huge, angry, shouting matches between the founders as to who worked harder, who owns more, whose idea was it anyway, etc. That is why I would always rather split a new company 50-50 with a friend than insist on owning 60% because "it was my idea," or because "I was more experienced" or anything else. Why? Because if I split the company 60-40, the company is going to fail when we argue ourselves to death. And if you ju
