In a perfect world, where things are done well, not just quickly, I would expect to find the following when joining the company:

Documentation

• Accurate / up-to-date systems architecture diagram

• Accurate / up-to-date network diagram

• Out-of-hours support plan

• Incident management plan

Latency numbers every programmer should know

L1 cache reference ......................... 0.5 ns
Branch mispredict ............................ 5 ns
L2 cache reference ........................... 7 ns
Mutex lock/unlock ........................... 25 ns
Main memory reference ...................... 100 ns             
Compress 1K bytes with Zippy ............. 3,000 ns  =   3 µs
Send 2K bytes over 1 Gbps network ....... 20,000 ns  =  20 µs
SSD random read ........................ 150,000 ns  = 150 µs

Read 1 MB sequentially from memory ..... 250,000 ns = 250 µs

Sinatra like routes in Rails controllers

A proof of concept of having Sinatra like routes inside your controllers.

How to use

Since the router is gone, feel free to remove config/routes.rb. Then add the file below to lib/action_controller/inline_routes.rb inside your app.

leifg

file_to_disk = './tmp/large_disk.vdi'

Vagrant::Config.run do |config|
  config.vm.box = 'base'

  config.vm.customize ['createhd', '--filename', file_to_disk, '--size', 500 * 1024]
  config.vm.customize ['storageattach', :id, '--storagectl', 'SATA Controller', '--port', 1, '--device', 0, '--type', 'hdd', '--medium', file_to_disk]
end
