I'd say this speaks more to the metaprogramming capabilities of rails rather than the team itself. Rails simply does more for you out the box with just a few macros.

That's not completely accurate. Rails 7.2 added fiber support. Only action cable still doesn't fully support falcon using http 2. But that's coming soon as well.

Ghana. Whatsapp is fine but Facebook is down.

If you're building internal facing apps, you can't go wrong with retool. We've used it in production since before it became public and its served us well.

It's a really sad state of affairs. There's clearly hatred being directed at a certain gender and race, but that seems to be fine since "they are the oppressors".

I think flutter fills that space. Apart from lacking proper background task support, it's a good offering. As a very adopter of react, flutter tickles me the same way.

I've been using this for the last 3 months and it's a pretty amazing tool. We need to spin up tools quickly for our operation teams and this has been a godsend. The support has bee…

It is obvious Google is doing it for their own benefit as well. The faster your page loads, the faster they can crawl.

For one thing, I do know my life revolves around programming. I work from home and so get to spend time with my kids and have a pretty chill time, but everything I do, is calculate…

I have more than 100 tabs on mobile. FYI, the indicator changes to a smiley. It's easy to cross that threshold when you're doing research.

Escape? Those who wished to escape took different paths, visa lotteries and the like. Those of us who've stayed back and are actively involved in tech entrepreneurship have little …

In that case, should he tell his employer he mechanized his work?

There were 4 of them out that night. And the driver closed for the day to hang with them. After he dropped them, they realized the devices were still in the car, and immediately tr…

On a night out drinking, a friend invited their uber driver to join them as they had a great connection (this is Africa so its not really strange). At the end of the night, said fr…

And TOR is no longer (was it before, I don't know) a secure tool.

A nitpick. He didn't actually say "nepotism is a beautiful thing". While I absolutely do not agree with Trump or his family and what they are doing, I hate to see when people, with…

Interestingly, I just yesterday published a post about pglogical. http://thedumbtechguy.blogspot.com/2017/04/demystifying-pglo... Postgres is an amazing piece of software.

Especially if we're adrift and starving. In that situation, the more complex the nervous system, the better.

The fact that I just erased my comment out of fear that it would be misunderstood and downvoted to hell scares me.

Exactly the same argument I advanced to @YeGoblynQueenne. Where there's no option, you have to split the roles. And where you split the roles, you can't make one party burdened unn…

You don't have to believe it for it to be true. > I'm very familiar with the alleged social necessity of keeping women home with their washing machines. I think you missed the poin…

When I read statements like this, I realise how detached many people are from the African reality. I'm a Ghanaian/German and my wife is a house wife. Indeed, I go to work while she…

This is very annoying to read on my S6 in chrome 55.0.2883.91
