An open letter from Android to iOS 7

At the Apple Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) on June 10, 2013 in San Francisco, Apple announced its upcoming mobile operating system iOS 7 with the redesigned user interfaces and couple of improvements compared to iOS 6. With the flat and “colorful” design, the design of iOS 7 is very controversial. One of the reporter from Forbes, Ewan Spence, after taking part in WWDC 2013, had written a very interesting letter involved in this hottest news. The letter is from Android to Apple’s fans talking about iOS 7 design and its change. Here is the content of this letter: “Dear Apple Fans, I write to you as the comedic personification of Android, having sat through the WWDC keynote and the debut of iOS 7. Can I just point out a few things that your OS is doing that contrast with how we do things over here? You don’t need to worry about all the pastel colours being thrown around making everything old look new. While the new iOS 7 software is going to be available on  older Apple hardware, the chances are that the new OS will debut inside yet another new physical design of the iPhone that may be announced in September. That means a huge expense for anyone upgrading their handset from an iPhone 4 or 5 to presumably the iPhone 6. Actually it means two expenses, as they’ll need to buy a new case as well as a new phone. If you’re spending that sort of money, you should really look at Android… we’ve got lots of cases to suit every budget. We’ve got a grid based...

Ruby on Rails 4 – first release candidate released

Folks! Great news! Just in time for the opening of RailsConf, the first release candidate of Rails 4.0 was managed to push out. Here are the nice guides to upgrade to Rails 4.0 http://rubysource.com/get-your-app-ready-for-rails-4/ This post is about the summary of the new features that Rails 4.0 offers, as well as the changes that may affect your current applications. Highlights in Rails 4.0: Ruby 2.0 preferred; 1.9.3+ required Strong Parameters Turbolinks Russian Doll Caching Ruby >=1.9.3 Rails 4 will only support Ruby 1.9.3+ and most compatible with Ruby 2.0. Get ready to upgrade if you have not done so to experience Rails 4. No more vendor/plugins The vendor/plugins directory has been removed in Rails 4. Instead, you should use Bundler with a path or Git dependencies. If you still have any code in vendor/plugins, you have 2 options: Move it to a gem. Most plugins should already have a gem version. If not, you can reference it from your Gemfile via the :git or :path options. Move it to lib/your_plugin and require it from an initializer on config/initializers. Threadsafe by default In new Rails applications, the threadsafe! option will be enabled by default in production mode. The way to turn it off will be by setting config.cache_classes andconfig.eager_load to false. This shouldn’t be much of a problem, unless the app (or one of its gems) is depending too much on thread safety. Strong parameters A lot of controversy was generated around the mass assignment protection. Since then, various different approaches were explored. Rails 3.2 uses attr_accessible and attr_protected on the models. Rails 4 takes a whole different point of view, making the controller responsible on what attributes are assigned to the model. An advantage of this approach...
