How to get Erlang, Elixir, Phoenix and Postgres set up on a new blank Ubuntu cloud9.io (c9.io) project/VM
# I had some issues with this and finally culled together instructions from various sites which finally worked
# The first thing you should do is clone your Phoenix/Elixir repo from Github to a blank Ubuntu c9.io VM
# The next thing we have to do is remove the stock Erlang which is erlang-base-hipe and not esl-erlang
# (this causes problems later on otherwise)
# But first we will add a new apt source
wget https://packages.erlang-solutions.com/erlang-solutions_1.0_all.deb
sudo dpkg -i erlang-solutions_1.0_all.deb
rm erlang-solutions_1.0_all.deb # shouldn't need it anymore

What I Wish I'd Known About Equity Before Joining A Unicorn

What I Wish I'd Known About Equity Before Joining A Unicorn

Disclaimer: This piece is written anonymously. The names of a few particular companies are mentioned, but as common examples only.

This is a short write-up on things that I wish I'd known and considered before joining a private company (aka startup, aka unicorn in some cases). I'm not trying to make the case that you should never join a private company, but the power imbalance between founder and employee is extreme, and that potential candidates would

Rails Rspec model testing skeleton & cheat sheet using rspec-rails, shoulda-matchers, shoulda-callbacks, and factory_girl_rails. Pretty much a brain dump of examples of what you can (should?) test in a model. Pick & choose what you like, and please let me know if there are any errors or new/changed features out there. Reddit comment thread: http…
# This is a skeleton for testing models including examples of validations, callbacks,
# scopes, instance & class methods, associations, and more.
# Pick and choose what you want, as all models don't NEED to be tested at this depth.
#
# I'm always eager to hear new tips & suggestions as I'm still new to testing,
# so if you have any, please share!
