One more reason I avoid flying them whenever possible.

Ah, that isn't something I considered. I don't write my apps multi-threaded, so it shouldn't be an issue, but definitely good to be aware of.

Ah, well, nothing is foolproof. Yes, if you don't update your dependency list when dependencies are removed, they might get stale. But I keep up on that stuff and haven't ran into that problem yet. Even if I did, I'd rather have that proble

Yes, but, if you test your classes in isolation, then you'll be forced to manually require each dependency at the top of the file.

by anti-pattern 14y ago
Interesting. Why would the requires go stale? And how would you use a dependency you don't require? It wouldn't be possible to use it unless you required it. This of course assumes you're testing your classes in isolation.

I think a lot of this unfortunately comes from Rails. Rails hides a lot of complexity which creates "magic". And since most Rubyists come to Ruby from Rails, a lot of Rubyists have the bad habit of hiding complexity wherever possible. I was

Thanks! Probably not, there aren't really any other products I get that excited about, and I like the idea of keeping it very niche.

Oh, interesting. Did they give a reason? Was it legal? MacRumors has been doing this for some time, I can't imagine that there's anything illegal about it.
16.
by anti-pattern 14y ago
Indeed. Maybe I'll post the data on GitHub or something.
17.
by anti-pattern 14y ago
Actually, the entire reason I made this site was because I thought the way MacRumors visualized the data wasn't very good. If they had done a better job, I wouldn't have needed to make this. As for credit... what should I be crediting them
18.
by anti-pattern 14y ago
I guess it depends on how you quantify usefulness. There's less info, but I think I visualized the information that I do show much better than MacRumors.
19.
by anti-pattern 14y ago
They probably meant whether or not I "took" the information from somewhere else. But yeah, actually scraping the information would have been ridiculous. It's all just in a static YAML file.

Ah, that makes sense. Thanks for explaining it! This was my first time using SVG. So, what is the best solution? Defining SVG styles in a style tag?
21.
by anti-pattern 14y ago
Yeah, for some reason Firefox won't show the gradient. Not sure why. In the meantime I made it so it would fallback to a solid color.
22.
by anti-pattern 14y ago
I built my own because their design, and I mean literally the way they visualize the data, isn't very good. Or rather, it's not as good as it could be. They even updated the design a year or two ago and all they did was give it a coat of pa

Whoops, it looks like Firefox doesn't like SVG gradients. I'll look into that. Thanks!

by anti-pattern 14y ago
Oh I remember seeing that when it came out. Did you take it down?
25.
by anti-pattern 14y ago
I want all of those things.
26.
by anti-pattern 14y ago
I've looked at their data, but I believe I've dropped some things that they consider releases. The whole thing is kind of subjective as to what constitutes a release or not. But no, I didn't just scrape their site. I compiled my own data fr

You're very welcome :)

by anti-pattern 14y ago
Yeah I was trying to decide whether it needed one or not. So far people seem to be getting it, but I might still add one.
29.
by anti-pattern 14y ago
Right now I'm just doing a simple average, but I'll definitely starting adding weighting and other ways of influencing the estimate.

Hmm, what OS, browser, and version are you on?
