How to install PhantomJS on Ubuntu

Version: 1.9.8

Platform: x86_64

First, install or update to the latest system software.

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install build-essential chrpath libssl-dev libxft-dev

belongs_to:

Assigning an object to a belongs_to association does not automatically save the object. It does not save the associated object either.

has_one:

When you assign an object to a has_one association, that object is automatically saved (in order to update its foreign key).
In addition, any object being replaced is also automatically saved, because its foreign key will change too
If either of these saves fails due to validation errors, then the assignment statement returns false and the assignment itself is cancelled.
If the parent object (the one declaring the has_one association) is unsaved (that is, new_record? returns true) then the child objects are not saved. They will automatically when the parent object is saved.

GeoPlanet data with ancestor chain cache imported in 10 minutes

Yahoo! provides its GeoPlanet data as three separate TSV files, available for download here.

That's a database with some 17 million records:

5.7 million records: locations (aka places).
2.2 million records: alternative names for each place (aka aliases).
9.6 million records: matrix of neighbourhoods per place (aka adjacencies).
