Do you remember your first steps in Ruby on Rails? Can you recall your first line of code? For a while, let's go back to the good old days.

So, you're lucky to have the opportunity to work remotely from home. Every day, regularly, occasionally? Still, you've got the perfect occasion to taste the sweet lure of slacking. And to be honest – from time to time – it's absolutely okay.

Remember how many times you refused things, just because your infantile stubbornness told you so?

Lit stands for “Lost in translation” and it describes mountable Rails engine that helps you and your client with translating Rails applications. As most of our work is made for foreign clients, we know the pain of translating few thousand phrases. You can use YAML files and forward them to the client.

Let's celebrate the 21st anniversary of Ruby!

Unlike many bustling workplaces, office environment should be relatively calm and quiet place that enables productive actions. Especially it should happen in a creative environment. So, as we're proud to be creative ruby beasts, one day we've pricked up ours ears and started to listen. And we've heard a lot. Mostly, mix of unwanted, unnecessary, sometimes actually irritating stream of noise.

Ruby 2.1.0 introduced many performance improvements.

If you haven’t installed Jenkins yet, hop over to the Jenkins Wiki page on installing Jenkins.

We do love programming hackatons – we have some experience with Rails Rumble and now it seems that we know something about game programming as well. Last weekend Ludlum Dare 27 took place, with leading theme – “10 seconds”.

Today I struggled for a few hours with non-working FB.ui share dialog on facebook tab (so no authorization was required whatsoever). The strange thing was that the script worked great in dev environment and refused to work in production.

Recently I was wondering if it’s really easy to create own processor / converter for CarrierWave.
