| Why Recruiters Are Universally Hated | |
| On 14. January 2013 I was invited for a job interview in London by Mr Ethan James of recruiting company | |
| TestDriven IT Group on behalf of his client, a start-up looking for Ruby on Rails developer. Mr Ethan | |
| James proposed I should fly with a low cost jet to get full reimbursement on my tickets. Hower I prefer | |
| rail and sea transport to air travel beacause of their smaller environmental footprint so we agreed that | |
| TestDriven IT Group will cover only half of my travel costs. The interview went well, I wasn’t hired so | |
| I traveled back to my home country through the snow covered Europe, sent a scan of the tickets to the | |
| recruiters upon my arrival and waited for the reimbursement to come. |
| # RUR (Relationally Universal Ruby) is a Ruby relational algebra DSL | |
| # that compiles to SQL, allowing you to write complex | |
| # queries without leaving your favorite language. It is going to be a nice | |
| # Ruby-like replacement of SQL in the same manner CoffeeScript is a | |
| # Ruby-like replacement of JavaScript. It will use all the features | |
| # found in a modern RDBMS (views, temp views, constraints, triggers, functions, | |
| # etc) without being tightly coupled to one particular implementation. | |
| # | |
| # Unlike ActiveRecord, which maps tables to classes, RUR maps relations to | |
| # objects. |
