Retry failed Resque jobs in Ruby
# inspired by http://ariejan.net/2010/08/23/resque-how-to-requeue-failed-jobs
# retry all failed Resque jobs except the ones that have already been retried
# This is, for instance, useful if you have already retried some jobs via the web interface.
Resque::Failure.count.times do |i|
Resque::Failure.requeue(i) unless Resque::Failure.all(i, 1)['retried_at'].present?
end
# retry all :)
Resque::Failure.count.times do |i|

How to apologize

Chances are your head's spinning right now. That accusation of bias caught you off guard, you got kind of defensive, and now all hell has broken loose. You're feeling attacked on all sides. You're a good person at heart, and having all these people treat you like the antichrist is pretty upsetting.

You need to say something, but you're probably not in the best headspace to write copy right now. So to help you along, here's my 100% guaranteed-or-you-money-back scandal defusement apology template:

Sandi Metz' four rules from Ruby Rogues episode 87. Listen or read the transcript: http://rubyrogues.com/087-rr-book-clubpractical-object-oriented-design-in-ruby-with-sandi-metz/
  1. Your class can be no longer than 100 lines of code.
  2. Your methods can be no longer than five lines of code.
  3. You can pass no more than four parameters and you can’t just make it one big hash.
  4. When a call comes into your Rails controller, you can only instantiate one object to do whatever it is that needs to be done. And your view can only know about one instance variable.

You can break these rules if you can talk your pair into agreeing with you.

Thinking out loud about the merits and drawbacks of two different usages of Struct…

How Should We Use Struct?

The Choice

It's common in Ruby to see some code setup a Struct like this:

class Specialized < Struct.new(:whatever)
  # ... define custom methods here...
end
