Thoughts about the life of a developer.. #programming

My favorite way to use rate_limit! 🤩

Pair it with a handle_rate_limit method and a dedicated BusyController to centralize how your app responds to throttled requests.

That’s how Rails turns a messy problem into a simple solution. 💚

I love this lesser-known technique for checking if two arrays contain the same elements, regardless of order. 🤩

⚠️: `to_set` is cool but may slow down huge datasets! 😉

#rubyonrails

[RubyCademy @RubyCademy]

The Builder-to-Proc pattern is among my top 3 favorites! 💚

By defining `to_proc` on `self`, you can pass a class directly to `map`, and Ruby converts it into a builder for each element! 🤩

Did you know about `up_only` in ActiveRecord::Migration?

It lets you run code only when migrating up. 🤩

A simple but powerful method that deserves more attention.

#rubyonrails

Thought of the day:

Code as if there were tariffs on each ActiveRecord query you write.

Rails 8 introduced `rate_limit` for controllers.

You can combine it with a `handle_rate_limit` method and a `BusyController` to centralize how you respond to throttled requests.

And that's how Rails turns a messy problem into a simple solution. 💚

So much knowledge in one joke #2.

My day is a bit messy, and I tried something straightforward:

I don't think about the expected outcome. I only fulfill mandatory daily tasks:

→ 500 push-ups
→ 7 hours of sleep
→ 4h of coding
→ 4h of content creation and marketing

Let's see where it brings me in 365 days!

Condemning my children to be remotely controlled by anybody?

No thanks! 😂

Always amazed at how Ruby allows setting dynamic default values for arguments! 🤩

Watching football is like watching p*rn:

- You get addicted
- Your mood depends on your team’s result
- You waste hours

I stopped 3 years ago. Now I build and watch things that actually move me forward.

Total brain rot otherwise. #buildinpublic #PsgInter

Yes! `Object#with` makes temporary changes so much more elegant! 😊

#rubyonrails

[RubyCademy @RubyCademy]

Did you know the `in?` predicate isn't limited to arrays?

It checks whether an object is included in another object! 🤩

The parameter must respond to `include?`.

[RubyCademy @RubyCademy]

Use the `Data` class and Ruby's pattern matching to handle different scenarios based on your data easily. 🤩

#ruby #rubyonrails

[RubyCademy @RubyCademy]

If you need to display verbatim HTML in your views, you can replace `<%= raw ... %>` with `<%== ... %>`.

It’s easier to read and works the same way! 🤩

#rubyonrails #erb

Combine Rails `class_attribute` with the `default:` option to centralize configurations effortlessly! 🤩
