... Then they should know that it's freely downloadable from rubyonrails.org, so it doesn't take much for a given person to "have" Ruby on Rails. Yeah, I'm not...
This week I set up a server and project to deploy with switchtower. It wasn't difficult, but there are enough pieces to fit together that it would make an...

Good morning all, I head up our recruting efforts here at Revolution Health Group in Washington D.C. and we are adding as many Ruby Developers to our team as...

The next meeting will occur on Wed the 22nd of March at 7pm-9pm at FGM like last time (with arrivals/pizza/drinks at 6:30pm). I will post what we will discuss...
