Notes

This is the latest version of an email which I send periodically, offering customers the opportunity to pre-pay for SaaS in return for a discount. The benefits to the SaaS company are better cash flow and reduced churn rate. The benefits to the customer are, well, in the email. This genre of email has produced hundreds of thousands of dollars in pre-pays for some companies I work with, and it rarely requires any more work than this example.

I've put $79 is as a placeholder for the cost of the user's plan. We calculate that for each account, naturally, along with the billing contact's name.

Subject: Save $79 on Appointment Reminder (and get a tax write-off) Formatting: 100% plain text. Gmail automatically links up the central link. From: Patrick McKenzie (Appointment Reminder) patrick@appointmentreminder.org

defmodule Constants do
  @moduledoc """
  An alternative to use @constant_name value approach to defined reusable 
  constants in elixir. 

  This module offers an approach to define these in a
  module that can be shared with other modules. They are implemented with 
  macros so they can be used in guards and matches

  ## Examples:

This is a brain dump of my experience trying to get something going with Ember.js. My goal was to get to know the ins and outs of the framework by completing a pretty well defined task that I had lots of domain knowledge about. In this case reproducing a simple Yammer feed. As of this time, I have not been able to complete that task. So this is a subjective rundown of the things I think make it difficult to get a handle on Ember. NOTE: My comments are addressing the Ember team and giving suggestions on what they could do to improve the situation.

App setup

The new guides have pretty good explanation of the various parts of the framework; routers, models, templates, views. But it's not clear how they all get strapped together to make something that works. There are snippets of examples all over the place like:

App.Router.map(function() {
  match('/home').to('home');
});

var qs = function(params) {
  var pairs = [];
  for (var key in params) {
    pairs.push(encodeURIComponent(key) + '=' + encodeURIComponent(params[key]));
  }
  return pairs.join('&');
};

console.log( qs({foo: 'bar', text: 'hi there', base64: 'Q/6+d=='}) );
// -> "foo=bar&text=hi%20there&base64=Q%2F6%2Bd%3D%3D"
