Low Coupling

Coupling refers to the relationship of a module with another module. A module is said to be highly coupled with another module if changes to it will result to changes to the other module. And a module is said to be loosely coupled if a module is independent of any other modules. This can be achieved by having a stable interface that effectively hides the implementation of another module.

Benefits of low coupling are

• maintainability – changes are confined in a single module
• testability – modules involved in unit testing can be limited to a minimum

Open Conference Expectations

This document lays out some baseline expectations between conference speakers and conference presenters. The general goal is to maximize the value the conference provides to its attendees and community and to let speakers know what they might reasonably expect from a conference.

We believe that all speakers should reasonably expect these things, not just speakers who are known to draw large crowds, because no one is a rockstar but more people should have the chance to be one. We believe that conferences are better -- and, dare we say, more diverse -- when the people speaking are not just the people who can afford to get themselves there, either because their company paid or they foot the bill themselves. Basically, this isn't a rock show rider, it's some ideas that should help get the voices of lesser known folks heard.

These expectations should serve as a starting point for discussion between speaker and organizer. They are not a list of demands; they are a list of rea

# Since unicorn creates a new pid on restart/reload, it needs a little extra love to

# To make this work properly with RVM, you should create a wrapper for the app's gemset unicorn.
