This picture really needs surrounding text to complete the look, so...

A quick Flay task for Rake...

The only other one I saw posted missed parts of the specified subfolders. So here goes:

begin
	require 'flay'
	desc "Run duplicate code analyzer"
	task :flay do
		output = `flay #{FileList["lib/**/*.rb", "app/**/*.rb"].join(' ')}`
		fail "Error #{$?}: #{output}" unless $? == 0
		puts output
	end
rescue LoadError => exception
	warn "Could not load flay - it might not be installed."
end

jQuery Hell...

Did this for our MoFoCamp demo tonight in a matter of minutes. Our port of a Tetris clone didn’t go as well (despite having a whole hour to work on that), but we got some practice with with speed JavaScripting. Lotta fun and I want to do it again (different framework next time though).

Nice to finally have some representation...

And I like this quote from his family histories regarding his upbringing:

...my mother viewed religion through the eyes of the anthropologist she would become; it was a phenomenon to be treated with a suitable respect, but with a suitable detachment as well.
