Git hook to prevent commits on a staging/production branch
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
# This pre-commit hook will prevent any commit to forbidden branches
# (by default, "staging" and "production").
# Put this file in your local repo, in the .git/hooks folder
# and make sure it is executable.
# The name of the file *must* be "pre-commit" for Git to pick it up.

Static Site Generators

Backstory: I decided to crowdsource static site generator recommendations, so the following are actual real world suggested-to-me results. I then took those and sorted them by language/server and, just for a decent relative metric, their Github Watcher count. If you want a heap of other projects (including other languages like Haskell and Python) Nanoc has the mother of all site generator lists. If you recommend another one, by all means add a comment.

True and False vs. "Truthy" and "Falsey" (or "Falsy") in Ruby, Python, and JavaScript

true and false vs. "truthy" and "falsey" (or "falsy") in Ruby, Python, and JavaScript

Many programming languages, including Ruby, have native boolean (true and false) data types. In Ruby they're called true and false. In Python, for example, they're written as True and False. But oftentimes we want to use a non-boolean value (integers, strings, arrays, etc.) in a boolean context (if statement, &&, ||, etc.).

This outlines how this works in Ruby, with some basic examples from Python and JavaScript, too. The idea is much more general than any of these specific languages, though. It's really a question of how the people designing a programming language wants booleans and conditionals to work.
