Generally one implements notifications by listening for events on specific models but if one wishes to have a single global message interchange, it could be done as follows:

var pubsub = new Backbone.Model;

View1 = Backbone.View.extend({
  initialize: function(){
    pubsub.bind('custom event', callback);
  }

A Capistrano Rails Guide

by Jonathan Rochkind, http://bibwild.wordpress.com

why cap?

Capistrano automates pushing out a new version of your application to a deployment location.

I've been writing and deploying Rails apps for a while, but I avoided using Capistrano until recently. I've got a pretty simple one-host deployment, and even though everyone said Capistrano was great, every time I tried to get started I just got snowed under not being able to figure out exactly what I wanted to do, and figured I wasn't having that much trouble doing it "manually".

Dear Rubyists,

I just lost a contract because of my code in a Rails project.

The specific code in question is related to a "posting a comment" feature. Here are the details:

In this project, "posting a comment" does not simply entail inserting a row into the database. It involves a procedure to yes, insert a row, but also detect its language, check for spam, send emails, and "share" it to Twitter and Facebook. I believe this algorithm should be encapsulated. I do not believe it belongs in a controller or a model. I do not believe Active Record callbacks should be used.

The "senior developer", whom is the stake holder's right hand man, said this:

// Turns a list into a list of lists of specified lengths.
_.chunk = function(array,chunkSize) {
	return _.reduce(array,function(reducer,item,index) {
		reducer.current.push(item);
		if(reducer.current.length === chunkSize || index + 1 === array.length) {
			reducer.chunks.push(reducer.current);
			reducer.current = [];
		}
		return reducer;
	},{current:[],chunks: []}).chunks
