Scaleway is the closest thing to a public cloud we have in the EU. Although it’s not a publicly traded company.

Hi @dhh!

Loving the tech and the website (and Rails, and Basecamp, etc). However it looks very similar to StimulusReflex (https://stimulusreflex.com), which has already attracted a few users.

Can you highlight the biggest differences between the two?

Thanks!

The following will give you "#1 wallpaper of the day" as decided by the wise folks at Reddit:

  curl -A 'random' "https://www.reddit.com/r/wallpaper/top.json?t=day&limit=1 | jq -r '.data.children[0].data.preview.images[0].source.url' | sed 's/preview\./i\./g'

And if you're a Mac user, the following will change the background:

  osascript -e 'tell application "Finder" to set desktop picture to POSIX file "<path to the picture>"'

Glueing these two pieces should be trivial :)

I am amazed by the timing. Literally finished reading the book this morning and spent most of the day deep in Wikipedia researching primordial soups.

I love that book and recommend it to anyone. The only thing I don't really like is its focus on MiniTest when practically everyone in the Ruby ecosystem has moved to RSpec. If I had to find a reason for this choice I'd say, one less gem to install and configure, and again convention over configuration.

Most schools and public offices open at 8 am.

Factories and offices usually run business from 9 to 18, but YMMV ;)
