Producer of RailsCasts - Ruby on Rails Screencasts
- Hello, world!
- Announcing: RailsCasts Pro and Revised episodes are now free! Anyone can watch them without a subscription at railscasts.com
- For those wondering how I have been, I am now happily engaged! We will be getting married this summer.
- I am now married! We are back from our honeymoon in Australia and everything has been better than I imagined.
- I’ve started a dev blog! The first post is RailsCasts Retrospective Part 1: The Fuel.
- Active Record tip: Pass an incomplete range to a `where` clause do a greater/less than comparison.
- I have started working for @reinteractive and loving it so far. It feels great to get back into Rails development!
- To make amends, @digitalocean donated $5,000 to an open source project of my choice. I chose Stimulus Reflex, @hopsoft and team have done an amazing job. What a classy move DO, thanks!
- Why do I have no plans to restart RailsCasts? I produced content that I personally wanted to watch. I scratched my own itch, and the itch isn’t there now.
- Clever code requires a high skill level to write, an equally high skill level to read, and an even higher skill level to debug. Embrace dumb code.
- I love doing full-stack web development. It's satisfying to solve a problem from beginning to end across the entire stack.
- I will never understand the npm culture of adding an external dependency to save 5 lines of JavaScript.
- My wishlist for the JSON format - trailing commas - keys without quotes - comments
