- Rails and Merb Merge: ORM Agnosticism (part 5 of 6) - A good article on the de-coupling of ActiveRecord from Rails.
- The Skinny on Scopes (Formerly named_scope) - Using the new scope feature in Rails 3.
- The Maintainability of Unit Tests - As far as testing goes, this is probably the best advice for those who are unsure what to test.
- You Are What You Charge - Great advice for freelancers.
About Me
My name is Matthew Lang, and I'm a software developer based just outside Glasgow in the UK.
I'm very interested in using agile methodologies such as XP to deliver projects with languages such as Ruby and open source frameworks such as Ruby on Rails and Sinatra.
