Got it working for Twitter by forcing the encoding to UTF-8, and running JSON responses through JSON.parse instead of whatever it did before.
It seems to have great provider support, but I’m getting Twitter’s unparsed HTML response (with that javascript tag), which is to be expected, actually. I’ll check how Mastodon does this—as it seems to only get the tweet content—sometime soon. Thanks for your help! :)
Not sure if it’s something I’d like to maintain, but I’ll be sure to keep that in mind in case I have some improvements to push. :)
That’s a great example I didn’t think of. I usually still do that in two lines:
irb> model.save
=> true
irb> model.errors
=> []
But I’ll try to remember to use #tap there. It’s just not top of mind for me. 🤷♀️
That’s a better example indeed. Instead of preventing an explicit return like in my example, this prevents having to store the result in a variable. But, exactly, I’d still prefer that.
result = do_stuff
result.is_admin = true
foo(result)
It’s been unmaintained since 2017, but I’m fine with updating some of an existing library instead of writing my own from scratch. I’ll take it for a spin soon. Thanks!
Any recommendations for a Ruby oEmbed library? I’d like to fetch cards for popular services on the server side without adding any external javascript to my pages.
I now take the returned javascript out manually for Twitter cards. 😕

I added an example I’ve seen a couple of times. I’d love to know what you think! :)

I’d love to see better examples of using #tap, but I’ve mostly seen it used to refactor this:
metadata = {}
metadata[:id] = user.id if user
metadata
That’s explicit. It creates a hash, adds a value if a condition is true, then returns the hash.
With #tap, the code is more difficult to read, and requires the next person to know what #tap does (“yields x to the block, and then returns x.”). 🤷♀️
{}.tap do |metadata|
metadata[:id] = user.id if user
end

Happy listening and until next week! 👋
Great tip. I’ll do something like that if I start running into issues. Thanks!
“Disclaimer: I don’t like #tap.”
Yes, that makes sense. In this case, it’d be a repository with thousands of ~250 byte files, which aren’t changed. Only new ones are added.
Does @gitlab have a hard limit on files per repository?
$ git commit -m 'But first, infinite scrolling.'
Aside from the 1GB file size limit, does Github have a limit on the number of files in a repository? Could you add, say, 15K files to the root? Asking for a friend.

These look great indeed. I’ve been using Hocus Focus to hide everything aside from the current window, and use splits in my full screen terminal, so never had much use for Divvy.
Replacing tools like that with scriptable versions sounds great, and I’d love to have them all in one place. Hammerspoon sounds great for that indeed, I’ll be sure to try it out. Thanks!
I donated my over-the-shoulder length hair to a foundation that makes wigs for sick children five years ago. Amazing that you’re growing it out specifically to help. Hang on, you’re almost there!
Great tip, thanks! Hammerspoon looks great, indeed. Any other automation you’re doing I’m missing out on, aside from the Caps Lock trick? :)
But wait, there’s more! A third option I’m trying is remapping Caps Lock to Escape when pressed, and to Control when held down. You can set that up on macOS by using Karabiner-Elements and downloading a “complex modification”.
Also: yes, I’ve now removed both the Escape and Control keycaps from my keyboard to get used to this.
That’s Dolphin! Please let me know if you take it for a spin. 🐬
That’s a great tip, thanks! Tried that with Karabiner-Elements and a custom modification last night, and it seems nice so far.
The delay is a little too long for my liking, still, but I only run into that when pressing Caps Lock to exit insert mode, and immediately saving with :w in Vim.
That’s the other option I’m trying. Set it up with Karabiner-Elements last night, and it seems to work so far. I mostly get in trouble when exiting insert mode and immediately saving, but that should be fixed by tweaking the delay.
Speaking of saving files, that should probably also be fixed by auto-saving when leaving insert mode, like we talked about a while back. 🤔
Still planning on deploying to Heroku? In that case, you can set them using environment variables via the web interface, or via heroku config. Let me know if I can help (but take that break first!).
