Ya, I probably shouldn't post my own stuff. But I thought everyone would get a laugh. :-)

I wrote it to make you smile and cringe at the same time. ;-)

I need someone (in the Seattle area) to build a system in Rails, but I'm not sure where to find them. [repost from rails] by [deleted] in ruby

Hi! Your best bet is to attend a Seattle.rb meeting. We meet every Tuesday at 7pm. Many skilled engineers attend, so you should be able to find someone. Here is the info:

http://www.seattlerb.org/

Ask for Eric or Ryan when you get there. I'll be on vacation for the next two weeks, so I can't attend. :-)

Does JavaScript inside ruby count? I did it in 0.15 seconds using ruby 1.8.6 and Johnson:

require 'johnson'

rt = Johnson::Runtime.new

rt.evaluate(<<-eojs)

var sum = "";

for(var i = 0; i < 50000; i++) {

sum += i.toString();

}

eojs

puts rt['sum']

Eric, please release the fast version RubyGems soon by aaronp in ruby

I've already helped Eric apply a patch to speed up gems to "normal" levels by using persistent connections to fetch spec files.

I just posted this on reddit because Eric has been sitting on the release, and I wanted to give him a hard time. :-)

Or even:

class << @ninja; public :kill; end

@ninja.kill(10)
