I've tried doing it(amidst my school exams) but I think it doesn't quite drill into me best practices.
I don't want to explore go and hack up something; I want to learn it once and learn it right. Any recommendation for this? (:
Hi everyone,I come from a ruby background, and am recently getting a little tired of rails/sinatra being not as quick as I would like them to be.I'd like to start learning Go, but I'm not quite sure where to start.Are there any books or videos I could get my hands on to get me up to speed?Thanks!
I would like to pick up algorithm programming. Divide & Conquer, DFS etc.May I know how you all picked it up? Any resources you have found particularly useful?Thanks.
You'll get better working out and experimenting with things on your own, but Hartl's book serves as a great beginner's guide (while being comprehensive).
I think "The Rails Way" by Obie Fernandez works as a good reference book after you get more experienced as well.

That's bout all(:
I'm pretty sure karma means nothing to many including myself. Good karma - so what?
Just trying to help those who are facing the same problem as me, hoping they'd read this and realise that the issue isn't with their app or development machine but with Heroku.
Lazy people can just use the rails version preinstalled on macs (though that's like 2.something)
You could take a look at the following a my friend and I (new to Rails) built using Ruby on Rails: http://supernotes.herokuapp.com/ for our school friends in a few days. It's still quite bare, with little JS or AJAX but that's because we're studying for our exams now.
I might have to learn the ruby first too. Seems quite key when i want to build my custom .html.erb pages.
Obie sent me the print version of his book, I'll probably take a look at it. Though in his email he considered it to be "more of an intermediate book".
ActiveRecord, Postgresql Database
Git for version control
Deployed to heroku (easy web deployment with just "git push heroku master")
Was following Nettuts suggested method: http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/ruby/the-best-way-to-learn...
Incidentally I met Obie Fernandez in person :D at the Red Dot Ruby Conference in Singapore he sent me a pdf version of his book :D
I'll try out eloquent ruby, maybe after the pickaxe.
Was learning on version rails 3.1, but now that rails 3.2.5 is out too many things have changed.
Recently dived into Ruby on Rails, with no prior experience of ruby. Only some background in C++,C, php and the likes.I'm still juggling between learning RoR, CSS, javascript and hacking at vim, and it's really difficult to do so since I still have to focus on my studies (i'm still 16 ><). I need to learn all those to build a decent well-rounded app.Any suggestions on where to start? It's...
There's this really good (currently beta) app called "Write" though. Not sure if they'll be extending its consumer base anytime soon.

For now since I'm just working on a RoR app as a personal project, I don't really have a server and tmux's capabilities are limited on my end. So I might give tmux a go first and familiarise with it first, so i'd be more up to speed when it's capabilities can come to play fully :D
Thanks (:
It's personally more intuitive to navigate tabs using iterm and tmux just makes the screen space so limited. If I don't do pair programming is it recommended to just use iterm?
