Some reasons to put redis in your stack

There are a lot of articles exploring the whys and wherefores of redis and I thought I would share some thoughts from somebody well versed in redis having used it in production over the past five or six years.

Build your own tailor-made indexes.

One of the foundations of the power of relational databases is the use of indexes. Redis gives you the ability to build your own, the way you want it, in a completely visible manner.

Coffee-Shop Development for Under $500

Coffee-Shop Development for Under $500

Do you have a great desktop, but don't want to shell out premium dollars for a MacBook Pro, only to have security concerns around your beautiful laptop getting stolen? If you feel great when you accomplish something complex, and you want a super-inexpensive backup computer that gives you both freedom and power to develop from your favorite cafe, read on!

In the early days, web development meant local file changes which were sent to the server via FTP. Shelling into the remote server directly was rarely ideal – but technology has come a long way.

Trello CSS Guide

Hello, visitors! If you want an updated version of this styleguide in repo form with tons of real-life examples… check out Trellisheets! https://github.com/trello/trellisheets

Even though somebody else wrote this bit of CSS, I know exactly how it works and how to extend it. Fixes are easy! I have a hard time breaking our CSS. I know exactly where to put new CSS. We use all of our CSS and it’s pretty small overall. When I delete a template, I know the exact corresponding CSS file and I can delete it all at once. Nothing gets left behind.”

You often hear updog saying stuff like this. Who’s updog? Not much, who is up with you?
