Scriu acest post direct din editorul de bloguri integrat in Flock. Da, se pare ca exista asa ceva, si acum vom descoperi cum si mai ales daca merge.
Update: NU (imi) MERGE!
Ce mai avem prin Flock? La prima vedere, o interfata incarcata. Eleganta, dar incarcata. Eu unul m-as descurca. Dar editorul de blog integrat, precum si retelele sociale integrate(Twitter, Facebook, Flickr) imi dadeau speranta ca l-as putea instala pe calculatorul parintesc, atragandu-i astfel pe parintii mei in activitati online ceva mai diversificate. Dar nu.. Flock nu se adreseaza utilizatorilor novici. Totodata nu se adreseaza nici celor experti, care sunt oricum fani Firefox/Safari/lynx (:P). Targetul sau este in schimb generatia “sociala” – oameni care folosesc internetul si calculatorul de ceva vreme, care au deja bloguri si cont pe Facebook. Oameni care vor sa aiba toate astea la un loc, intr-o interfata prietenoasa.

Friday, November 2nd, 2007Iluzie optica?
Friday, October 12th, 2007Mai, sunt eu nebun? Kottke zice ca daca ma concentrez, as putea sa vad dansatoarea din iluzia optica de aici schimbandu-si sensul de rotatie. How on earth? Imi lacrimeaza ochii de efort, si tot nu reusesc sa o vad rotindu-se decat in sensul acelor de ceasornic. Ceea ce indica, se pare, ca sunt o persoana “right brain”: imi place sa vad imaginea de ansamblu, am perceptie spatiala, fantasy-based, risk-taking si altele.

Functional tests with login in Rails
Wednesday, April 18th, 2007My assignment this week, as senior Ruby on Rails developer for TrexGlobal (an US startup with some cool online apps for real estate investors that help you save lots of dollars on your taxes) was to add tests for some of the controllers in place.
Yes, I know, we should have used TDD(Test Driven Development) and write our tests BEFORE or along with our development, but, you see, in practice this kind of things rarely happens, there are always time constraints and last minute refactorings. Plus, I didn’t have much rails testing experience before this; but it’s never too late to learn, is it?
The main issue here was that the big book Agile Web Development with Rails (Pragmatic Programmers) covers functional tests well, but not in real-life situations. For instance, what if I want to test some actions that require the user to be logged in?
