  • Why I have no intention of becoming an iPhone (or iPad) developer

    2 September 2010 - Rick Hurst - Freelance Web developer. Bristol, England.

I have an iPhone, and I love it. I also use mostly apple mac computers and love those too. I’m writing this [...]

  • call for talks

    27 August 2010 - Bristol Ruby User Group Google Group
    Hey Guys,
    The hack night and the last BRUG were a bit of a disaster so I'm getting on the ball early for the next BRUG so it doesn't happen again. Does anyone have anything they'd like to do a talk on or show at the next BRUG? It will be held on Thursday 30th Sept.
    I've been working mostly in JavaScript for the last few months so I'd be happy to do a talk on something JavaScript based if that would be interesting to people, possibly about testing in JavaScript? I could cover some of the more difficult/awkward test situations you can come across in JavaScript land. I've written a library called webMooch that could do with a bit of polishing and finishing and this could give me the kick in the ass I need to do it :)

  • Rails, Clearance, Subdomains and Remember Me?

    18 August 2010 - Stefan Goodchild

    Been building a side project in Rails 2.3.8 recently and found that whilst getting the session cookie to work across subdomains is pretty trivial the Remember Me? cookie used by Clearance isn’t, especially for someone new to it like I am. Some fiddling around and some StackOverflow browsing led me to a pattern that solved [...]
