  2. Security and hacking

    Ethical-Hackers-Of-The-World

    WordPress has little to do with Ruby, but security is a main concern of any web developer and site owner and we just recently had a new patch on Rails, fixing a security issue which exposed thousands of apps to hackers. Today I was fixing some WP issue which made me think how vulnerable sites can be. And I found a cool blog about ethical hacking. Thought it can be useful for you too.

    January 13, 2013 by szabcsee

    Just found a nice little graph about the job trends of Ruby and Rails compared to other languages such as Python, Java, PHP, etc. This was published by Indeed which is a huge job aggregator site. It seems learning Rails and developing in it is a good career choice nowdays.

  7. How do you set up your PC or Mac for Ruby?

    September 20, 2012 by szabcsee

    Sorry guys for being totally lost. I have a lot of work nowdays and unfortunately not much time for Ruby but still keeping up with the community and the Ruby Facebook group so I have some valuable information from the fellow Ruby coders that I can share with you. Recently I bought a 4.1 Macbook for myself as the old laptop was not much fun and I got this amazing offer from a friend to get this quite cheap. So I got my MacBook with a fresh 10.7 on it and I was wondering how to start with the installation and what should I use. So I decided to ask around in the Facebook Ruby Group what others prefer to use. (more...)

    StartCoding

    As a beginner programmer probably you have to face many difficulties or rather call them challenges. First getting your head around learning the basic theory and syntax might seems a bit frightening but soon you realize that with the help of the so many online tutorials, communities and reference books, you can get through the process pretty fast. The real challenge comes when you already finished your "Write your first CRUD application" tutorial and you are about to get your hands dirty and write your own application. (more...)
