Data Serialization Formats

JSON, MessagePack, and Google's Protocol Buffers are all awesome. Here's how they're awesome on different client environments and how to use them on your rails env.

Some links:

• JSON: http://json.org/
• MsgPack: http://msgpack.org/
• ProtoBufs: https://code.google.com/p/protobuf/

Output from Ruby Client:

Composer doesn't work with GitHub Two Factor Authentication.
You have to generate a token (with "repo" scope at least) at https://github.com/settings/applications

Copy the token and keep it somewhere safe.

Run: composer config -g github-oauth.github.com paste-your-token-here

I'm having trouble understanding the benefit of require.js. Can you help me out? I imagine other developers have a similar interest.

From Require.js - Why AMD:

The AMD format comes from wanting a module format that was better than today's "write a bunch of script tags with implicit dependencies that you have to manually order"

I don't quite understand why this methodology is so bad. The difficult part is that you have to manually order dependencies. But the benefit is that you don't have an additional layer of abstraction.
