When you create a new Rails app the default static page (public/index.html) page shows a lot of details about the app. Here’s a quick how-to show these details (the idea is to probably show these on a /ping route (or a debug parameter on any page maybe) – so you can quickly monitor your app – it’s state, active_record state etc.).

Rails 3: browse the source-code at railties/lib/rails/info.rb

Till the next time…

After a day of struggling finally Emacs+CL+Clojure+Slime setup is working. I noted it all in the notes section.

I use and love 1Password on my Mac every day – it has become one of those things I can’t live without, and is easily worth the $40 price.

Yesterday they announced their very generous ThanksGiving offer: Free 1-for-1 license. So I can give away a Free 1Password for Mac license – and since no one else in my family has started using a Mac full-time yet, I will give it away to you!

Just add a comment here – saying why I should give it away to you and wait for a few hours. I will pick one person here and send them the license. Make sure you leave some contact so I can get back to you. How will I pick? The most entertaining comment of course. But yeah – don’t hold me to it, I might just randomly pick someone.

Thank you for playing!
