Welcome to My Blog.

Here, you will find posts, links, and more about code (primarily Ruby), business (bootstrapped SaaS), and a little of everything in between.

I have been working on a new KickoffLabs trial experience today and I have typed trail more times than I can count. Copilot has caught on seems to be helping push me in the wrong direction.

Once GMK Chaos Theory ships, I may need to pick up this PCB.

If you work in an office, this is a great way to keep others from using your keyboard.

Finding and Fixing Files in Git with Mixed Case

I cloned a repo with a couple of files that were duplicated because of case sensitivity. Git was nice enough to warn me about them, but I couldn't remember which files where an issue.

Two of them became a problem and were fixed, but I was sure there were more than two when I cloned the repro.

I found this excellent script to highlight and fix the problem files: git-detect-case-change

NFL Playoffs 2023 Week Two Pics

I was 5-1 last week on the money line. I sadly picked the Bucs not because I thought they would win, but because I despise the Cowboys.

With the spread, I was 3-3 with the Ravens and Bills (and Bucs) letting me down. The Bills inparticular cost me nice tease I had no business winning anyway.

Week 2 Pics:

  • The Chiefs like to play with their food, so the -9 scares me, but I think they are going to be ready. So I will take the Chiefs to cover.
  • Eagles need to make a statement. -7.5 feels a couple of points too high, but lets roll with the favorites.
  • Bengals - I not only expect them to cover, but I think they will win.
  • 49ers - Have I mentioned how much I hate the Cowboys...the Eagles and 49ers are on a collision course. I expect the 49ers to win by much more than 4.

This looks like a great library to take your Rails javascript interactions up a notch without adding something like Alpine (or even more heavy-handed).

What's in your Gemfile? These are some of my favorite posts. I also need to create a list of my favorite/most often used gems soon.

I did a little digging and found an option for a Bauer 2 POM plate.

I would not be this excited for a piece of Polyoxymethylene. 😄

I went through Turbo Rails Tutorial (free e-book).

Overall, it is a helpful guide to seeing how all the Turbo/Hotwire pieces fit together.

It is free now, so no real gripes with it. But, if I could change anything I would have liked to see a git repository with the bare-bones structure in place. Copying and pasting a bunch of CSS just adds unnecessary busy work.
