Why?

There is a long standing issue in Ruby where the net/http library by default does not check the validity of an SSL certificate during a TLS handshake. Rather than deal with the underlying problem (a missing certificate authority, a self-signed certificate, etc.) one tends to see bad hacks everywhere. This can lead to problems down the road.

From what I can see the OpenSSL library that Rails Installer delivers has no certificate authorities defined. So, let's go fetch some from the curl website. And since this is for ruby, why don't we download and install the file with a ruby script?

Installation

The Ruby Way! (Fun)

Vim, Vundle and ConEmu on Windows

Let's start by getting it out on the table: Sublime Text is great, and version 3 should no longer be considered "abandonware" as of build 3065. Sublime Text served me very, very well over the years. That said, trying out new things is a major part of leveling-up, and in that vein Vim deserves a go. (And have you seen some of those thoughtbot guys flying around in Vim? It's awesome!)

Getting Vim up-and-running on your Windows machine doesn't have to be an all-day project. In this post, we'll walk through:

• Installing gVim, which gives us both the "classic" command line version as well as the graphical version
• Installing Vundle, the best way to handle Vim-enhancing packages
• Installing ConEmu, a supercharged command line emulator for Windows
