Wrapper script around `heroku pg:pull` for loading a local database
#!/bin/bash
# Example:

# Replace this with your local database name
# Install dependencies

Business models based on the compiled list at http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4924647. I find the link very hard to browse, so I made a simple version in Markdown instead.

Override inspect on ruby objects
# When an RSpec test like this fails,
#
# @my_array.should == [@some_model, @some_model2]
#
# RSpec will call inspect on each of the objects to "help" you figure out
# what went wrong. Well, inspect will usually dump a TON OF SHIT and make trying
# to figure out why `@my_array` is not made up of `@some_model` and `@some_model2`.
#
# This little module and technique helps get around that. It will redefine `inspect`
# if you include it in your model object.

Media Queries in Sass
// Media Queries in Sass 3.2
//
// These mixins make media queries a breeze with Sass.
// The media queries from mobile up until desktop all
// trigger at different points along the way
//
// And important point to remember is that and width
// over the portrait width is considered to be part of the
