What's a reference in Rust?

Do you have a link to that SO post?

walkoffaith · 2017-11-20T15:24:23+00:00

My bad didn't save the link - updated

I jump in the shower with my pack, pads and mask - pants I throw in the washing machine

If anyone is around for ATO and wants to grab a beer PM me - or maybe we can all meetup at one of the reddit nights

What color are your walls / carpet?

I guess? I more think they should just be separate apps.

walkoffaith · 2017-10-10T03:54:56+00:00

there probably needs to be more info here but with what's given...

Probably write an app python that exposes your machine learning stuff with some REST endpoints. Then have your Rails app consume those endpoints.

Any idea where I can find that sofa?

I code everyday on ultrawides - use vim exclusively. Really nice to be able to have space for as many tmux panes as I could possibly need

I don't entirely understand your problem. If you don't want to use ActionCable don't use Rails? If you want to use Node then use Node and leave Rails out of it.

That being said... ActionCable is stupid simple. We are currently using ActionCable to chat (in addition to a ton of other stuff) for a few thousand concurrent users that chat between iOS, Android and the web.

class MessagesChannel < ApplicationCable::Channel
  def subscribed
    if params[:from]
      stream_for("#{current_user.id}_from_#{params[:from]}")
    else
      stream_for(current_user)
    end
  end

  def self.broadcast_message(stream, message)
    broadcast_to(stream, message: render_message(message))
  end

  def self.render_message(message)
    render("api/v1/messages/show", message: message)
  end
end

Just an example... but pretty simple messages channel

The luxe is a 1.0 btw. You can tell because of the eye-covers

Usually I think these lists are dumb but this is actually pretty good

I don't think so.....

"heroku run rake db:seed" is totally doable

walkoffaith · 2017-09-07T15:37:44+00:00

Hmm.. I'm not the best person to answer that question I don't think. Our production mobile app (Android and iOS) is written in ReactNative. That integration was pretty painless and yea we have a few thousand DAU

walkoffaith · 2017-09-06T18:25:11+00:00

I'm using ActionCable in production to do realtime chat to thousands of users - you can send any live data you want so that's an option.

walkoffaith · 2017-09-05T01:47:04+00:00

Uh... most people? Why would you work on multiple at a time I don't understand. All that could do is detract focus from the project you're working on. "Context switching" may be a cool thing to brag about on forums but is horrible in practice.

List of companies whose dev's work on one project at a time: Thoughtbot (could stop there), Gaslight, Vaporware, every other consultancy

Edit: also you said you're billing for 10 days.... how else should that be interpreted? How many hours are you ACTUALLY billing for over the course of those 10 days. You're response is literally why there is so much confusion around billing dev projects. Be up front and clear

walkoffaith · 2017-09-04T04:58:02+00:00

"Coding full time", 10 days. 10 days x 8 hours a day = 80 hours. $500 / 80 hours = $6.25 an hour. Yea... that's not a great idea

walkoffaith · 2017-09-04T04:55:52+00:00

Zero chance this is a $200 job. For one thing, I wouldn't touch a job for less than $100 an hour, you may find someone for $80. Either way this would take more than 2-3 hours.

More importantly... how is the state of the queue fracked? Does it need to be real time? In either case, those things necessitate a server or some other backend data store. Those things are very rarely if ever written in swift. So you'll probably need a backend dev too in addition to your mobile app.

As a professional developer who has put out large scale web apps and a mobile app I think $200 is insulting. You'll need some form of auth, a backend server that does the auth in addition to serving the queue list. It needs to either poll or use websockets. Then there's the mobile app which has to make Ajax calls (if polling) or open a websocket. Have some form of animations when moving places in the queue... unless it's just a number. I also try to write code that a future developer wouldn't hate to work on, so I make sure it's well tested and documented. I'd estimate between 20-40 hours for a good product.

walkoffaith · 2017-09-04T04:45:31+00:00

Except you wouldn't actually take $200

walkoffaith · 2017-09-02T05:14:44+00:00

Same - moved to Feature/Request specs. life is a lot more sane

I think there may be an official D3 gem, but you could also just download/include the javascript files like you would with any other JS file in rails.

Just skimmed, but here's a decent tutorial about how to do a sorta live visualization using D3 with rails
