Jim Weirich:

This is how I explain it… Ruby has Procs and Lambdas. Procs are created with Proc.new { }, lambdas are created with lambda {} and ->() {}.

In Ruby 1.8, proc {} creates lambda, and Ruby 1.9 it creates procs (don't ask).

Lambdas use method semantics when handling parameters, procs use assignment semantics when handling parameters.

This means lambdas, like methods, will raise an ArgumentError when called with fewer arguments than they were defined with. Procs will simply assign nil to variables for arguments that were not passed in.

Hi, [insert recruiter's first name here]-

I've gone to some lengths to save everyone some time by maintaining a FAQ page on my resume website: http://resume.livingston-gray.com/faq.html

I've even gone so far as to change my LinkedIn profile so that it directs recruiters to read the FAQs before contacting me about relocation opportunities. So, thank you, [recruiter's first name]! By carefully ignoring all of that information, you've freed me from having to feel even remotely guilty for sending you a canned response.

Latency numbers every programmer should know

L1 cache reference ......................... 0.5 ns
Branch mispredict ............................ 5 ns
L2 cache reference ........................... 7 ns
Mutex lock/unlock ........................... 25 ns
Main memory reference ...................... 100 ns             
Compress 1K bytes with Zippy ............. 3,000 ns  =   3 µs
Send 2K bytes over 1 Gbps network ....... 20,000 ns  =  20 µs
SSD random read ........................ 150,000 ns  = 150 µs

Read 1 MB sequentially from memory ..... 250,000 ns = 250 µs

ruby-1.9.3-p327 cumulative performance patch for rbenv

This installs a patched ruby 1.9.3-p327 with various performance improvements and a backported COW-friendly GC, all courtesy of funny-falcon.

Requirements

• rbenv
• ruby-build

You will also need a C Compiler. If you're on Linux, you probably already have one or know how to install one. On OS X, you should install XCode, and brew install autoconf using homebrew.

Using strace and lsof to debug blocked processes

You can use strace on a specific pid to figure out what a specific process is doing, e.g.:

strace -fp <pid>

You might see something like:

select(9, [3 5 8], [], [], {0, 999999}) = 0 (Timeout)
