• NJR Februrary Meeting: Memcache Performance Testing with Rails Sessions

  Wed, 17 Feb 2010, 02:00 - 04:00 in Colorado Springs, United States

  Chris Lehman is making good use of his free time and stepping back up to the plate for another presentation. It may be he just likes the "encouragement."Sessions provide persistence across the stateless HTTP protocol. As traffic to your web site increases, you may want to move your sessions from database tables to memory. We'll look at at how to set up sessions with memcache, and then run some performance benchmarks.

• NJR November Meeting: Deploying with Vlad

  Wed, 2 Dec 2009, 02:00 - 04:00 in Colorado Springs, United States

  We still need people to man (or woman) up and give a featured talk, both now and in the future. Remember, it doesn't need to be about Ruby, just tangentially related. [divider] Kevin McFadden (that's me) will be demonstrating how to deploy a Ruby on Rails application with Vlad the Deployer. Deploying an application can be a real hassle. For PHP, my methodology has been something like tar -cvf ~/deployable/project-yyyymmdd.tgz `"find -mtime -[days since last deploy] | grep -v [git|svn

• NJR October Meetup: Sinatra and Recap from the DeRailed Trip

  Wed, 21 Oct 2009, 01:00 - 03:00 in Colorado Springs, United States

  Hey Guys, Winter, I mean Fall, is here, and it's time for regular meetups again. Julio Barros, of the Colorado iPhone Developers Meetup, will be giving a talk on web development with Sinatra. Sinatra is a lightweight, ruby, web framework that is great for small projects, though I have seen some people start creating a more rails like directory structure to handle larger ones. Plus we'll hopefully have some good stories from the DeRailed meeting on Sept 23rd.

  Hey Guys, It's a really busy month for me, and I think Brooke is busy too. However, half the fun is hanging out so we don't want to drop the ball there. Brooke and I will be hosting a viewing of Cube. Brooke and I will be providing some snacks, bring some drinks if you want something specific. I'll have a 6 of Laughing Lab, or maybe we'll score one of those mini-kegs from Trinity. Email me if you are interested in attending a hack night.

• Not Just Ruby June Meetup: Back to Ruby and Rails

  Wed, 17 Jun 2009, 01:00 - 03:00 in Colorado Springs, United States

  OK, we've been bouncing around topics recently, but I want to spend the next few months concentrating on our core: Ruby and Ruby on Rails. I have a few ideas for upcoming talks, and I'll probably decide which one I'll be doing closer to the meeting date. If you want to give a talk, I know Brooke has some, please let me know and we'll make sure you get some stage time! Two of my talks are similarly titled: "What's neat about Ruby?" and "What's neat about Ruby on Rails?".
