- any character you use it will literally match it except special characters
^ $ ? . / \ [ ] { } ( ) + * - all the special characters that will need escaping if you don't want them to be special
// - regexp ruby class

Common Patterns (I authored)
/[\w+\.~-]+@[\w~-]+.[\w\.]+/ - match emails, conforms to RFC 3986 section 3.3
/\+?(\d)?[-|\.|\s]?\(?(\d{3})\)?[-|\.|\s]?(\d{3})[-|\.|\s]?(\d{4})/ - match phone numbers, https://gist.github.com/1009331

# Typical way of handling the email in the controller
class UsersController < ApplicationController
  def create
    @user = User.new params[:user]
    UserMailer.deliver_welcome(@user) if @user.save

# This is a mechanism we use often in our migrations. When we have a migration
# that hits every record of a large table, this looping mechanism takes the
# bite away from the migration. This allows us to be transactional in our
# migration while avoiding aggressive locking of the table. Ultimately
# allowing us to do migratory deployments even more frequently during high
# usage areas of the day.
#
# Further, some long migrations that we'd run over a weekend may exceed the
# max transaction time set on our MySQL server. Running smaller transactions
# avoids this sensible restriction.
