RT @ask: Amazed how Jekyll () can take minutes to generate a site from 30 source files. Nice programming there. #ruby

Ry is a bit different from other version [managers][nvm]. The major design goal of ry is to be explicit, unobtrusive, and easy to query. In the vein of the n package manager for node, there are no subshells, and the only thing it needs to add to your environment is a single entry to your $PATH (also tab completion if you like). For example, here's how you create a new installation:

Elixir is a programming language built on top of the Erlang VM. As Erlang, it is a functional language built to support distributed, fault-tolerant, non-stop applications with hot code swapping.

Static Sites Made Powerful

Jekyll-Bootstrap ships with a complete pre-built Jekyll directory structure for blogging, modular theming, plug-and-play commenting, analytics, new post and page generators, and coded page-stubs to get you rolling.

Copycopter lets you edit live copy in your web app. Setup is simple and managing copy is easy, flexible and forgiving. Get to da Choppa!

Ruby is a powerful language, but how much power does it have if you remove all of its datatypes except for Proc and all of its features except for Proc.new and Proc#call? I’ll investigate by building proc-only representations of numbers, booleans, lists and strings, and using them to write an executable program.

@aarlo here's one that happened today...kill me plz

Looks like everyone is using fog for s3 these days -

Sup is a console-based email client for people with a lot of email. It supports tagging, very fast full-text search, automatic contact- list management, custom code insertion via a hook system, and more. If you're the type of person who treats email as an extension of your long-term memory, Sup is for you.

Docsplit is a command-line utility and Ruby library for splitting apart documents into their component parts: searchable UTF-8 plain text via OCR if necessary, page images or thumbnails in any format, PDFs, single pages, and document metadata (title, author, number of pages...)

In general, signals need only be sent to the master process. However, the signals Unicorn uses internally to communicate with the worker processes are documented here as well. With the exception of TTIN/TTOU, signal handling matches the behavior of nginx so it should be possible to easily share process management scripts between Unicorn and nginx.

Metaprogramming in ruby!

Phusion Passenger is an Nginx module, which makes deploying Ruby and Ruby on Rails applications on Nginx a breeze. It follows the usual Ruby on Rails conventions, such as "Don’t-Repeat-Yourself" and ease of setup, while at the same time providing enough flexibility.
