This document discusses using JIRA for project management. It mentions that JIRA can be used for issue tracking in IT projects and allows configuring workflows. Slack and JIRA can be integrated so that Slack messages can update JIRA issues. The document asks questions about how JIRA could be used to manage projects with different teams like engineering, project management, QA, and customer support and track issues through their lifecycle from creation to resolution.
This document discusses using Go and gRPC for building APIs. It provides an overview of Go and gRPC, recommends resources for learning Go, and discusses using gRPC for communication between a Ruby on Rails API and Go services, with examples like building a gRPC API for etcd.
Google Cloud Platform provides services well-suited for a Splatoon stats tracking application including App Engine's cron jobs, BigQuery for affordable large data storage and analysis, Stackdriver for error reporting and debugging, and Git integration. App Engine's Ruby runtime is suitable for the application and BigQuery can handle data inserts from API responses to track kill ratios over time with Stackdriver aiding in issue identification.
The document discusses refactoring Ruby code for calculating bicycle gear ratios and diameters. It introduces a Gear class with chainring and cog attributes, then expands it to also take a Wheel object. The code is refactored to use keyword arguments and add validation tests for objects that implement gear preparation.
This document discusses similarities and differences between Ruby and Scala. Some key points made include:
- Both languages support features like maps, filters, and reduce functions on collections, though the naming is sometimes different (e.g. Traversable#map in Scala vs. Enumerable#map in Ruby).
- Both support traits/modules for mixing in functionality like Ruby's modules and Scala's traits.
- Both support open classes through mechanisms like Ruby's open class and Scala's implicit conversions.
- Both support dynamic invocation through method_missing in Ruby and Scala's dynamic feature.
- Scala supports additional features like futures, Scala.js for compiling to JavaScript, and Scala
