This is an extraction from Jim Weirich's "Decoupling from Rails" talk, which explained how to apply the hexagonal design pattern to make every layer of your application easily unit testable (without touching the database etc). It only seeks to extract a single method, the EmployeesController#create method, to illustrate the design damage that's …
# Original Rails controller and action
class EmployeesController < ApplicationController
def create
@employee = Employee.new(employee_params)
if @employee.save
redirect_to @employee, notice: "Employee #{@employee.name} created"
else
render :new
end

Startup Noob Guide: Tips and resources on how to test, develop your startup idea, or find a developer/associate/CTO

Startup Noob Guide (bit.ly/startupnoob)

If you want to create a startup, and you've never done that before, you should consult the resources that are relevant to your situation.

[FR] Si vous comprenez le français, je vous invite à regarder la vidéo de mon pote Shubham qui résume assez bien le plus gros des conseils de cette page, en 8 minutes: Vous avez une idée de startup ?.

Replace .bashrc, .bash_profile, .profile, etc. with something much more clean, consistent, and meaningful. Now a repo: https://github.com/josephwecker/bashrc_dispatch

# This gist is slow and is missing .bashrc_once
# Use the one in the repo instead! https://github.com/josephwecker/bashrc_dispatch

# Are you tired of trying to remember what .bashrc does vs .bash_profile vs .profile?

De-'Async Inject'ing Universal Analytics

De-'Async Inject' Universal Analytics

This gist applies the theory from Ilya Grigorik's Script-injected "async scripts" considered harmful on the default Universal Analytics snippet. TLDR place this above the CSS in the <head> of your document

<!-- Google Analytics Part 1: Creates window.ga, sets account, and queues pageview-->
<script>
  !function(n,t){n.GoogleAnalyticsObject=t,n[t]=n[t]||function(){(n[t].q=n[t].q||[]).push(arguments)},n[t].l=1*new Date}(window,"ga");
  ga('create', 'UA-XXXX-Y', 'auto'); // REPLACE UA-XXXX-Y w/ YOUR ACCOUNT
 ga('send', 'pageview');
