Created October 26, 2010 11:36
Quick and dirty one off migration task for paperclip plugin to move files from local filesystem to Amazon S3.
# First configure your models to use Amazon s3 as storage option and setup the associated S3 config.
# Then add the classes your want to migrate in the klasses array below.
# Then run rake paperclip_migration:migrate_to_s3
# Should work but this is untested and may need some tweaking - but it did the job for me.
namespace :paperclip_migration do
desc "migrate files from filesystem to s3"
task :migrate_to_s3 => :environment do
klasses = [:model_1, :model_2] # Replace with your real model names. If anyone wants to this could be picked up from args or from configuration.
klasses.each do |klass_key|

How is git commit sha1 formed

Ok, I geeked out, and this is probably more information than you need. But it completely answers the question. Sorry. ☺

Locally, I'm at this commit:

$ git show
commit d6cd1e2bd19e03a81132a23b2025920577f84e37
Author: jnthn <jnthn@jnthn.net>
Date:   Sun Apr 15 16:35:03 2012 +0200

When I added FIRST/NEXT/LAST, it was idiomatic but not quite so fast. This makes it faster. Another little bit of masak++'s program.

15 Questions to Ask During a Ruby Interview

Originally published in June 2008

When hiring Ruby on Rails programmers, knowing the right questions to ask during an interview was a real challenge for me at first. In 30 minutes or less, it's difficult to get a solid read on a candidate's skill set without looking at code they've previously written. And in the corporate/enterprise world, I often don't have access to their previous work.

To ensure we hired competent ruby developers at my last job, I created a list of 15 ruby questions -- a ruby measuring stick if you will -- to select the cream of the crop that walked through our doors.

What to expect

Candidates will typically give you a range of responses based on their experience and personality. So it's up to you to decide the correctness of their answer.
