Double Shot #173
Deployment day today...I'd better get back to this CSS.
- Things (in the Rails World) You Don't Yet Understand - Interesting exercise: what do you know you could comprehend, want to learn more about, but haven't found time for yet? Mine would include the ins and outs of deployment and server stacks (even though I've done it), Test/Unit (I skipped right to RSpec, which is hurting me on a project right now), and ActiveMerchant (which I need to implement real soon).
- The Language Question - Jay Fields considers some of the reasons (other than technical superiority) why devs pick a particular language to specialize in. In my case, the move to Ruby was, of course, driven by my desire to abandon Microsoft and my perception of where the markets were.
