Hacked around rails-footnotes today and wanted to make it work with Gedit. Searched around and found this askubuntu question.
This is water.
This is from moreintelligentlife.com but I wanted to keep a copy for my own reading. This is the transcript of the commencement address of David Foster Wallace given to the graduates of Kenyon College in 2005. Thanks to Birdie for sharing this via FB.
Today’s Development Notes
Visiting one of our apps yields an error the first time you visit it but a refresh fixes it. Dug through the logs and found this particular error:
“Mysql::Error: MySQL server has gone away: …” consistently.
Searched around the net and found this SO question that seems closely related.
I’ve applied his fix (include wait_timeout: 2147483 in the database.yml) but is yet to see if it does fix the thing. Maybe I’ll have to do a server restart.
Today’s Development Notes
I encountered an error today while pushing to one of our webbies which was related to this.
Fixed it by upgrading the rubygems on our webby to 1.8.23 (it was at 1.4.x !! DX)

I’ve decided to upgrade one of our apps up to Rails 3.1.4. I’ve then encountered this while compiling my assets. Rolled back my sass-rails to 3.1.4 (it was at 3.1.6) to fix the compiling issue.

You can push another app to the same webby by running wn push. You just have to configure a new Nginx (in our case) config file in /opt/nginx/phd-sites/. I’m loving Webbynode more and more every time I deploy.
