Loading in Spacemacs

Emacs packages, features, files, layers, extensions, auto-loading, require, provide, use-package… All these terms getting you confused? Let’s clear up a few things.

Files

Emacs files contains code that can be evaluated. When evaluated, the functions, macros and modes defined in that file become available to the current Emacs session. Henceforth, this will be termed as loading a file.

One major problem is to ensure that all the correct files are loaded, and in the

How to use Rails 3.0's new notification system to inject custom log events

Instrument Anything in Rails 3

With Rails 3.0 released a few weeks ago I've migrated a few apps and I'm constantly finding useful new improvements. One such improvement is the ability to log anything in the same way that Rails internally logs ActiveRecord and ActionView. By default Rails 3 logs look slightly spiffier than those produced by Rails 2.3: (notice the second line has been cleaned up)

Started GET "/" for 127.0.0.1 at Mon Sep 06 01:07:11 -0400 2010

Phoenix Drain Stop
# ATTENTION: This is now supported in plug_cowboy as of 2.1.0:
# https://hexdocs.pm/plug_cowboy/Plug.Cowboy.Drainer.html
defmodule DrainStop do
@moduledoc """
DrainStop Attempts to gracefully shutdown an endpoint when a normal shutdown
occurs. It first shuts down the acceptor, ensuring that no new requests can be
made. It then waits for all pending requests to complete. If the timeout
expires before this happens, it stops waiting, allowing the supervision tree
to continue its shutdown order.

A super simple Elixir server for sending Server Sent Events to the browser.

Generate a new Elixir project using mix and add cowboy and plug as dependencies in mix.exs:

  defp deps do
    [
      {:cowboy, "~> 1.0.0"},
      {:plug, "~> 0.8.1"}
    ]

Jim Weirich on the differences between procs and lambdas in Ruby

Jim Weirich:

This is how I explain it… Ruby has Procs and Lambdas. Procs are created with Proc.new { }, lambdas are created with lambda {} and ->() {}.

In Ruby 1.8, proc {} creates lambda, and Ruby 1.9 it creates procs (don't ask).

Lambdas use method semantics when handling parameters, procs use assignment semantics when handling parameters.

This means lambdas, like methods, will raise an ArgumentError when called with fewer arguments than they were defined with. Procs will simply assign nil to variables for arguments that were not passed in.
