Adding a new ruby version to a server with rbenv
ssh deploy@some-server
# Upgrade ruby-build (So it knows about the new ruby version and so can fetch it for us)
cd ~/.rbenv/plugins/ruby-build
git pull
# Grab a coffee while downloading ruby
rbenv install 2.2.4
# Make sure bundle command is available

While writing a redux reducer I ran into the issue that I wanted to remove a property from an object without mutating it. Here's how I solved it. tl;dr Just use http://devdocs.io/lodash/index#omit #redux #reducers #immutability
import test from 'ava'
import deepFreeze from 'deep-freeze'
import omit from 'lodash/omit'
test('normal delete will mutate the object', t => {
const obj = { a: 1, b: 2 }
deepFreeze(obj)
t.throws(() => delete obj.a)
})
