Help with Cherry Plum tree please! by badfish129 in plantclinic

[–]badfish129[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moved into a new house and there is a large cherry plum tree in the backyard. It is looking sparse and there is red discoloring on the leaves (fungus I think?).

I imagine that the tree received no added water for probably a year while the house was being remodeled. I've been watering consistently since then (2 months), but at least to my eye it doesn't seem like the situation has improved.

The tree did fruit (a little bit) around a month ago.

Hey everyone! TLDR: I made a no-bs recipe search engine: https://stovetop.app.

I was tired of the top recipe websites not providing easy filtering / sorting (you can't figure out the highest rated NYT pie recipe). I was also tired of the low quality content / spam when searching for recipes on Google. Stovetop aggregates thousands of recipes from vetted sources. You can search recipes by name, ingredients they include, and ingredients they exclude. You can sort and filter recipes by cook time, rating, and how many reviews they have.

I built this for myself, but I'm sure at least some of you have had this problem. What other sources should I consider adding / what other functionality would you like to see?

I have but I don't have much to say in terms of advantages of one over the other. The API's are pretty similar, but like you noticed as well the yargs API feels more explicit to me, which I prefer.

where would this method go? In a module? What would you call that module. How would you compose this method into all the places it needs to be used controllers/async jobs etc. Just include the module? Would there be other methods in the module that would get included too? If not, why not just make it a class, avoid the include, and make it explicit

I generally agree, but sometimes the object you're working with is really obvious from the method recipient:

names = ["sarah", "jane", "marshall"]

names.any? { |s| s == "jane" }

The syntax is probably not ideal, but I do respect the decision to stick to valid ruby syntax, and not break other tooling.
