Passing Blocks to Rails partials
<%
#
# I originally needed to create a sidebar partial that had a div area where I could place custom links into. Finally found it.
# When I was trying to figure this out before and realized I needed to pass the view into :layout, rather than just using render 'layout'. Not sure why the block can't be passed otherwise but nonetheless...
#
# For explanation of options see

Germany is 9 hours ahead (12am in AZ = 9am in Germany).

  • Work 75% of time in morning/afternoon
  • Work/save 6-7pm (9-10am AZ time) for general standup and catch up at our normal time

Rspec guides notes

General guides

  • Use describe blocks for objects and methods ("given" scenarios)
  • Use context blocks for "when" scenarios
  • Avoid spec descriptions longer than 40 characters. Split into contexts if longer.
  • Prefer expect syntax
  • Use before blocks at the lowest scope necessary
    • e.g. start within it blocks, then move into describe, then only if necessary for all tests put outside of those.
  • Use validation tests and place them at the top of the describe block

Die Begründung des Optimismus aus dem Willen zum Leben
Zwei Dinge hat das Denken zu leisten: uns aus der naiven zur vertiefen Welt-
und Lebensbejahung zu füren und uns von ethischen Regungen zu einer
denknotwendigen Ethic gelangen zu lassen.
Vertiefe Welt- und Lebensbejahung besteht darin, dass wir den Willen haben,
unser Leben und alles durch uns irgendwie beeinflussbare Sein zu erhalten und
auf seinen höchsten Wert zu bringen. Sie verlangt von uns, dass wir alle
Ideale der materiellen und geistigen Vervollkommnung des Menschen, der
Gesellschaft und der Menschheit denken und uns durch sie zu stetem Wirken und
stetem Hoffen bestimmen lassen. Sie erlaubt uns nicht, uns auf uns selber
