Here's the lineup for tonight's meeting! RUBY DEBUGGING: LIFE AFTER "PUTS" Have you outgrown basic debugging in Ruby? Rob Kaufmann shows how to step up your game and use the Ruby debugger in a variety of practical ways.
CONVERTING FLAT DATA INTO RICH RUBY OBJECTS WITH :COMPOSED_OF Storing simple data as model attributes in a database is easy to do in Rails, but sometimes we want to handle and manipulate data that is more than just a string or a number.The :composed_of macro in ActiveRecord gives us that ability, and it's simpler than you think. Chris McCann shows us how. RAFFLE We'll be giving away a shiny new Peepcode, books, software licenses, tons of Heroku credits, and some t-shirts! AFTERPARTY When the meeting's over, we'll head over to Rock Bottom Brewery for a round or two of beer. ....
