Subdomaining Localhost with Rails 5

I've been following this blog post on how to set up an api-only Rails 5 application. One of the sections talks about creating a subdomain for your api

Rails.application.routes.draw do
  constraints subdomain: "api" do
    scope module: "api" do

What github.com/wevote/WebApp/issues does this fix?

wevote/WebApp#757

Changes included this pull request?

Purpose

The purpose of this pull request is to refactor the build process for WebApp. WebApp currently uses gulp + browserify to build the source files. The primary product of this build process is the single bundle.js file which contains the app’s main javascript logic. The problem is that it can take over 2 minutes to generate this file. Even a small change to one file means that we must wait 2 minutes for the entire bundle.js to rebuild. With webpack, we have reduced the build time down to less than 70 seconds (initial build) & 3 seconds (hot reload) (using weback’s hot-rebuilding capabilities).

Introduced webpack with docs

Most VPN Services are Terrible

Short version: I strongly do not recommend using any of these providers. You are, of course, free to use whatever you like. My TL;DR advice: Roll your own and use Algo or Streisand. For messaging & voice, use Signal. For increased anonymity, use Tor for desktop (though recognize that doing so may actually put you at greater risk), and Onion Browser for mobile.

This mini-rant came on the heels of an interesting twitter discussion: https://twitter.com/kennwhite/status/591074055018582016

Console VIM and Tmux setup compatible with Mac OS X and Linux.

Installation

Because this script prompts for user input, you have to execute it in a bit of an odd way. From a new command prompt simply copy and paste the following command and press return:

exec 3<&1;bash <&3 <(curl https://gist.githubusercontent.com/jondkinney/2040114/raw/vim.sh 2> /dev/null)
