Object Oriented Design Notes

Sandi Metz

  • Inheritance is not for sharing behavior
  • Active Nothing (Null Object Pattern)
    • Must believe in nothing
  • No such thing as one specialization
    • The new behavior is one thing and the original behavior is the other
    • Isolate the difference, name the concept, define the role, inject the players

PostgreSQL Upgrading
# Taken from http://robots.thoughtbot.com/post/33706558963/migrating-data-from-an-upgraded-postgres
#
# Note: these steps assume installation with Homebrew.
# Initialize a new database, adding a .new suffix to the directory that Homebrew recommends.
initdb /usr/local/var/postgres.new -E utf8
# Run the upgrade script, providing the correct paths for the various flags.

Memory

Only four values really matter:

  • shared-buffers: below 2GB: set it to 20% of full memory; below 32GB: 25% of your full memory.
