Friday Night Randomness

Bored and procrastinating. Might as well link some things up for you, gentle reader.

• Deprecations coming in Rails 1.2 - prepare yourself
• Serious vulnerability in Ruby’s CGI libary (1.8.5 and below!) - you are effected if you are using Mongrel, plain CGI, or Litespeed - you are NOT effected if you are using FastCGI. See Zed’s post for more details.
• A wireless dock is coming for your ipod that allows you to sync and charge your ipod, all while being connected via normal 801.11b/g wifi.
• The Rails community could learn a lot from the Django book that is being produced and annotated right now. The annotations are done with the YAHOO.ext library, and it all works together very nice.
• Interview with Scott Ambler discussion agile adoption, agile and data modelling, and the “unified process” (excuse me). Scott always has some interesting things to say.
• Absolutely insane clip of Jeff Milligan (canadian techno dj) mixing on four (4!!) decks. When I was dj’ing everyday I was able to do 3 decks if I was having a good day, but Milligan works four here like its nothing.
• I’ve blogged about my great experience with Rimhosting before - here is guide for setting up mongrel and mod_proxy on Rimu for production rails.
• Review of the Ruby Way on Slashdot - While it will be particularly useful to the novice Ruby programmer, it is a handy reference for Rubyists at any level of experience.
• Profile of Will Wright and his upcoming game, Spore. Spore is the first game in a long time that I’m really very excited about. Watch some videos and see why.

Not sure if you have seen this before but you should check out the Flow game. http://intihuatani.usc.edu/cloud/flowing/black.html

Looks similar to Spore.

Hey Rob!

Thanks for the link. I’m trying to keep the dialog going on rails/rimu/mongrel let me know if you run into anything interesting!
