Thur I'm out of town, so enjoy lunch without me. RubyConf registration opens Wed night -- good luck getting in. Mando, let's talk further about the blog next...
How about 11:30 at Waterloo on Burnet (the north location, a few blocks south of 183, NOT the one at 35th)? David ... David H. Bluestein II President & Lead...
Luncherator is setup for today: http://ns2.iitechnologies.com:8000/luncherator to give us a rough idea of table size. As per Jim's request, Flash is now a...
And to see that even the comic strips have picked upon tesla motors, see Wednesday's Foxtrot: http://www.gocomics.com/foxtrot/2006/08/02/ ... David H....
Okay, here is a complicated data/display question I'm trying to figure out the best way to handle in Rails. I have a schema: create table tooltypes ( id int...
If you're just going to be using ToolType and Area as an ordering, then how about just grabbing the list in that order from ActiveRecord? So, in the...
Ryan- I need to also display the tooltype and area too. What I went with was putting this code inside the area loop in the view. So I have to loop through all...
David, Actually, I was thinking about this a bit more, and if you go with the ordered return from the controller, then all you need to do is track when the...
Ryan- I'd toyed with that algorithm too, but wasn't sure it was ruby enough. I can see where it would work with pagination. It was between that, and the method...
Hey Hal! We missed you. I wanted to ask you Thursday what you were thinking about an Austin Regional Ruby Conf. How about Waterloo, North Burnet (not at 38th,...
Google bought SketchUp and I downloaded it for the Mac. While playing around I found in the "Window" menu a item entitled "Ruby Console"..... There's online...
Luncherator is up for today, I'll patch the Rails security issue after lunch in case it breaks something. http://ns2.iitechnologies.com:8000/luncherator David ...
Well, we missed our "2nd Thursday" window. Let's not miss another month -- let's aim for 2nd Thur in Sept. Now, two things: 1. Can we find a good regular...
How many people? I missed the last meeting (I think it was client emergency night or something). ... David H. Bluestein II President & Lead Developer...
Okay, I know this is a simple question, but I've Perl'd too long and don't know what to look in ruby that is simplistic, and I want to get the "choose your...
David You can include double quotes (") inside a here doc or a %Q{}. irb(main):001:0> a = %Q{ irb(main):002:0" This is a "test". irb(main):003:0" } => "\nThis...
Jim- Maybe, I'll have to lookup %Q{} (haven't seen that before). That may solve my problem. I could get double quotes to work inside a here doc, but couldn't ...
... David, I'm not sure I understand your problem. You may not realize you can use here-docs in very arbitrary ways. x = <<EOF1 + <<EOF2 Hello, there. EOF1 How...
Hal- I didn't realize that I could do that (I'm waiting for Ruby Way 2d Ed to learn the cool way to do things), so that is partially helpful. I may need to...
