New blog jdc.io

I’ve setup a new blog over at https://jdc.io which is running on golang and to start with has a couple posts about using golang as a web server or how to use templates and some common ways templates are used for html. I will either shutdown this blog or migrate it across.

Released my first RubyGem ‘BabyNames’

I often find myself always writing seed data and repeating myself.  Trying to make it as ‘real’ as possible instead of just “test1”, “test2”, “test3” etc.

So here is a gem that will simplify all of that! See babynames on github for more details or find it on rubygems.org

require ‘rubygems’
require ‘babynames’

person = BabyNames.person
person.first_name
=> Ilene
person.last_name
=> Brennan
person.male?
=> false
person.email
=> [email protected]

person = BabyNames.person
User.create(:first_name => person.first_name, :last_name => person.last_name, :email => person.email, :male => person.male?)

For more examples see the github readme
