brunomirandaon Vital – a minimal (8kb) CSS framework for the modern web

Interesting, as much as I don't think we need yet another CSS framework you bring up some good points about maintaining and expanding on something like Bootstrap. Are there plans to release a GEM and/or NPM package?

brunomirandaon Instacart launches Searchkick - Bootstrap for Search

I appreciate that you decided to open-source this project. I do have a few (hopefully) constructive criticisms to make:

1. Using aliases the reindex with near zero downtime is very clever, mad props to Jaroslav Kalistsuk

2. Tire is excellent, I am glad you didn't try to reinvent the wheel here, please keep it that way.

3. Conversion based score boosting, although clever is flawed. Hardcoding values https://github.com/ankane/searchkick/blob/master/lib/searchk... is convoluted. You should consider providing a more flexible DSL to customize how conversion based score is calculated.

4. Analyzers https://github.com/ankane/searchkick/blob/master/lib/searchk... are poorly named and do not represent what they do.

Again, this is very nice for version 0.1.2

brunomirandaon $100 to Fly Through the Airport

I'd rather pay and go home to my family or use the time I would've stayed in line working and making money. But I do agree, it's all ridiculous.

brunomirandaon Richard Stallman's Computer Setup

Very narrow minded in my option. There's a reason why people prefer an iPad over a Lemote Yeelong. There is more to life than principles. I do respect his opinion but if he would like to continue to make a difference in the open software community he could stop spending so much time in email and concentrate on technology advancements and how to promote open source.

brunomirandaon Our Vacation Policy: Take Some

Give people options and they will generally do the right thing. An intelligent, competent, highly productive employee who is hired by a fast growing and profitable start-up knows better than to take too much vacation to the point of looking stupid. Try this policy at your local dead-end job. Nobody would show up. Because nobody gives a st.

My point, hire smart people, give them a reason to give a st and they'll do the right thing.

brunomirandaon What’s Up With All These Changes in Rails?

Programming is really not supposed to be super easy. When someone is able to start "programming websites" in a couple hours using Rails things get dirty, ala 2007-08 when Rails started getting a bad reputation for amateurish/slow/buggy applications.

HAML has not been adopted because DHH does not like it.
