Render damnit!
I often times find myself wanting to write code in controllers like this:
def login! user = authenticate params[:username], params[:password] user ? true : (( render :file => ‘access/denied’, :use_full_layout => true )) end def post_comment login! generate_content render end
But of course you cannot since a DoubleRender will be thrown. ...

Rails, database sessions, and...
If you are using this
ActiveRecord::Base::primary_key_prefix_type = :table_name_with_underscore
in config/application.rb. Then the standard
cfp: ~> rake db:sessions:create
won’t work in rails. This is because the session migration generator doesn’t respect the
configured primary key naming convention and because the column the session table uses to store the...

Merb vs Rails.
I think the conventional wisdom is flat wrong. The following tests use database stored sessions to read and store the current time out. Then it simply prints that time and the string ‘42’. All tests ran in production mode. Zero modifications to configs or performance tweaking was done to any setup - they are all stock ‘out of the box’ installs on Darwin 8.9.1...

Controller.

Inflector.piss_off!
If the pluralization rules in Rails drive you nuts too, and you’ve ever written this in your code:
ActiveRecord::Base::pluralize_table_names = false
Then you probably actually wanted this too:
Inflector.inflections.clear
The first makes table names always singular. The second everything else. It’s only with both that things like associations will also work in the...
Brilliant.
ATTORNEY: Doctor, before you performed the autopsy, did you check for a pulse?
WITNESS: No.
ATTORNEY: Did you check for blood pressure?
WITNESS: No.
ATTORNEY: Did you check for breathing?
WITNESS: No.
ATTORNEY: So, then it is possible that the patient was alive when you began the autopsy?
WITNESS: No.
ATTORNEY: How can you be so sure, Doctor?
WITNESS: Because his brain was sitting on my desk in a jar.
ATTORNEY: I see, but could the patient have still been alive, nevertheless?
WITNESS: Yes, it is possible that he could have been alive and practicing law.
