[18:15:48] LyndsySimon: I'm building a docker image for a Rails app I'm working with, and was a little stunned by something - the source for the app is 178kB, but the gem dependencies are 103MB.
[18:21:11] LyndsySimon: fschuindt: I totally expected the dependencies to be many times larger than the source - that's the point of a higher-level language, after all. I guess it shocked me a bit that they're ~500x larger.
[14:20:45] LyndsySimon: has left #ruby: ()
[14:13:12] LyndsySimon: Bish: I've not touched it, other than to read the docs. I don't write Ruby outside of work, as a rule.
[14:13:49] LyndsySimon: I did make some significant progress on my CSV gem, thouhg.
[15:19:10] LyndsySimon: Bish: because I'm honestly not a huge fan of Ruby, like I said. I am a fan of writing stuff I like, though, and this CSV gem is one of those things. Hence, I'm writing Ruby in my personal time even though it's not my preferred language and not something I would normally work in without a financial reason.
[15:40:57] LyndsySimon: Bish: Nothing is *wrong* with Ruby
[15:41:00] LyndsySimon: At least, not that I know of.
[15:41:17] LyndsySimon: It just doesn't fit the way I think about problems as well as many other languages. Personal preference is all.
[15:42:06] LyndsySimon: If I had to wrap my complaints into a single statement, I'd say: Ruby encourages developers to create things that behave in unexpected and difficult-to-debug ways.
[15:43:13] LyndsySimon: Metaprogramming, for instance. It's a pain in the ass in Python, and as a result while it's available it's something that isn't done much unless it's really the best solution. It's super-easy in Clojure, and as a result at least when you run in to it, it's more obvious what's happening and easier to debug.
[15:44:13] LyndsySimon: Ruby takes a more middle path. It's approachable for less-experienced developers, but it has a much steeper learning curve and it's not always obvious when you're dealing with something you don't fully understand.
[15:45:49] LyndsySimon: ... because it doesn't conform to the class syntax used elsewhere, and because classes in Ruby don't have metaclasses in the same way that other languages do ...
[15:53:41] LyndsySimon: havenwood: I don't think it's a bad idea, and I don't think Ruby is a bad language. I just prefer a different way of dealing with it :)
[15:53:50] LyndsySimon: Bish: "Correct", in this case, is subjective.
[15:54:29] LyndsySimon: Bish: It's more flexible without question. I just see the point of this sort of language to be to reduce the depth at which I have to think about things when I'm writing code. For me, Python does that much more effectively than Ruby
[15:54:48] LyndsySimon: I really miss Python decorators when I'm working in Ruby, much more than I miss blocks in Python.
[16:00:09] LyndsySimon: havenwood: Right - that's exactly my complaint with Ruby. It's not that it's lacking features, it's that it has too many features.
[16:00:42] LyndsySimon: Python decided on a pattern, made is easy to use, and eschewed others.
[16:00:49] LyndsySimon: AFK - going into a meeting.
[15:56:33] LyndsySimon: I'm considering writing a gem to ease CSV parsing in Ruby - if you have a sec, I'd appreciate a quick review of the short README. I'm looking for community input before I decide whether or not writing it is worth my time: https://gitlab.com/lyndsysimon/ideas/blob/master/csv_parser.md
[15:59:58] LyndsySimon: Bish: Oh? I've honestly never used it. I came up with this idea after discussing options to reduce code duplication for CSV import scripts in a web app at work.
[16:00:34] LyndsySimon: I'm kind of on a kick writing DSLs right now, and it seemed like a natural fit. Too much work to justify it for work, but not if others find it useful.
[16:00:56] LyndsySimon: Bish: Yes, fields are defined by default in the order they are presented in the file.
[16:01:26] LyndsySimon: Bish: I've not yet thought much about title rows. I may just exclude them, or I may allow you to define fields based upon the titles in the title row.
[16:02:03] LyndsySimon: Bish: My favorite DSL I've written so far is for defining datatables. It's written on top of ajax-datatables-rails.
[16:04:33] LyndsySimon: Bish: It's still rough :) I planned to support using it as an object or a keyword, and to allow you to register new types as keywords.
[16:05:07] LyndsySimon: The "from: last_name" part, I was thinking that the field was named "last_name" in the CSV. Like I said, not fully formed, just trying to illustrate the overall idea.
[16:05:38] LyndsySimon: `object.class < Integer` :)
[16:06:02] LyndsySimon: >> 1.class < Numeric
[16:07:00] LyndsySimon: Bish: What about the idea of splitting out the process into several steps? i.e., schema definition, row validation, excluding rows, processing rows, etc.
[16:08:09] LyndsySimon: Bish: My general approach is to handle the 80% use case first, and by default. Only schema definition and per-row processing would actually be required.
[16:08:55] LyndsySimon: Ideally, I'd like most uses of my code to be only a few short, clear, concise lines. Only if things deviate from the norm should there be additional complexity exposed to the dev.
[16:10:08] LyndsySimon: Anyhow, thanks for letting me bounce the idea off you :) I have an inkling I may write the gem this week for fun.
[16:11:20] LyndsySimon: FWIW I'm not a huge fan of Ruby as a language. I come from a Python background mostly and have branching out into more functional languages, specifically those centered on immutable types. I've discovered that I really like Ruby for writing DSLs though.
[16:11:54] LyndsySimon: LOL.
[16:11:56] LyndsySimon: Yeah, I can see that.
[16:12:19] LyndsySimon: My problem is time. This gem seems like something I can whip up fairly quickly, and something that won't require a ton of ongoing maintenance.
[16:13:26] LyndsySimon: I've dabbled in Haskell. It fits the way I think, but I'm not yet fluent in the syntax. Every time I go back to it, I get to the point where I'm overwhelmed by the terminology that's used - monads, functors, et. al.
[16:14:01] LyndsySimon: Clojure fits me pretty well too, but I find that every time I get in the flow I have to reach back into Java for something and it breaks my flow.
[16:14:30] LyndsySimon: Plus, Clojure's tooling is *slow*.
[16:15:04] LyndsySimon: Nim is very, very interesting to me. The only real issue I have with it is that the standard library uses mutable types by default.
[16:16:04] LyndsySimon: Oh hey - here's an example of a previous DSL I've written, in use:
[16:16:09] LyndsySimon: https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/MRsUnoK2/image.png
[16:16:41] LyndsySimon: `get_raw_records` was named by the library the DSL sits atop, not me.
[16:16:49] LyndsySimon: ACTION looks up sequel
[16:17:52] LyndsySimon: Hell yeah, that's awesome.
[16:18:09] LyndsySimon: Sequel looks a lot like my style.
[16:19:25] LyndsySimon: I'm skimming the docs now. I love it. It's both simpler and more powerful that ActiveRecord.
[16:19:45] LyndsySimon: composite key support! :P
[16:22:58] LyndsySimon: Nah, that's a good thing.
[16:23:16] LyndsySimon: I will point out that you were just making fun of me for seeing this kind of thing as fun, though :)
[16:24:24] LyndsySimon: CSV is only a convenient hook I'm using to get to do the nerdy stuff
[16:27:11] LyndsySimon: CSV is actually quite sane - it's the implementations that make you want to shoot yourself.
[16:28:10] LyndsySimon: Bish: I got a commit into the Nim core repo a while back! https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/commit/8ea78b1bc9dc0b4d883b4f0750ee84e93605b82a#diff-172294a35ce6ecdb390ca1d591297682
[16:28:15] LyndsySimon: ACTION iz proud.
[16:29:08] LyndsySimon: IIRC, Excel's CSV exports are bad, too.
[16:29:54] LyndsySimon: I want to say there's a problem where it only allows escaping quotes with `""`, instead of `\"`, or vice versa. It's been a while.
[19:18:24] LyndsySimon: Can anyone tell me why this fails?
[19:18:31] LyndsySimon: >> x = Integer; x('1')
[19:19:27] LyndsySimon: dminuoso: OK... I'm not following.
[19:20:17] LyndsySimon: >> x '1'
[19:20:26] LyndsySimon: ^ That doesn't work either.
[19:20:52] LyndsySimon: I have a glimmer of understanding, though.
[19:21:03] LyndsySimon: There's a lookup table for methods, and another for variables in scope. Right?
[19:21:36] LyndsySimon: I think it's pretty advanced, honestly.
[19:21:42] LyndsySimon: LOL.
[19:22:46] LyndsySimon: I haven't thought about it like that, but that makes sense.
[19:22:59] LyndsySimon: Yeah, I'm digesting it.
[19:25:14] LyndsySimon: OK, I think I understand the eval.in - the existence of an in-scope variable `x` means that it shadows the method `x`, which is a method. Adding parens skips the lookup in the variable table(s), so it gets the actual object.
[19:25:53] LyndsySimon: My problem is that I need to assign the Integer - the callable - to a variable, then call it on another object later.
[19:26:29] LyndsySimon: `x` does in fact contain the object I want to call, but neither method allows me to actually call it. Is there another way to call it?
[19:26:49] LyndsySimon: Ahhhh. That makes sense.
[19:27:28] LyndsySimon: ACTION laughs
[19:27:39] LyndsySimon: >> x = Integer; x.('1')
[19:28:27] LyndsySimon: Yep. Yay, that makes sense.
[19:30:00] LyndsySimon: dminuoso: ... but `Integer '`'` works. I assume there is something special in `Integer` that tells it to call `Integer()` if it's being called and not assigned to a variable?
[19:30:25] LyndsySimon: apeiros: Thank you, that part was missing for me
[19:37:42] LyndsySimon: The DSL stuff I'm working on where I needed that piece of functionality is now working - thanks dminuoso and apeiros
[14:29:30] LyndsySimon: has joined #ruby
[14:30:24] LyndsySimon: I'm working on a project where we have substantial manual QA testing, in addition to our automated tests that use Capybara. Does anyone have experience using Capybara to automate the setup to particular states for the purposes of manual testing?
[14:31:05] LyndsySimon: Basically, I'd like to run the user's browser for as long as it takes to do environment setup tasks - logging in, creating some stuff, then dropping them on a page and giving them back control.
[14:44:58] LyndsySimon: MrBusiness: Yes, it's a web app. The "state" would be a combination of client state (i.e., session, including cookies and LocalStorage) and server state (including database contents).
[14:46:06] LyndsySimon: Basically, I want to be able to run a test that's already using Capybara, but instead of executing the test I want to stop there and let a user take over.
[14:46:33] LyndsySimon: Hmm. Yeah, I could.
[14:47:42] LyndsySimon: I'd like to wrap this in a GUI of some type - either a desktop app, a web interface or a browser extension. That would require that I split the test setup and teardown from the test suite and put it in a structure that's readable and usable for this as well. That should be possible.
[14:47:47] LyndsySimon: It's getting more clear in my mind :)
[14:47:52] LyndsySimon: Just talking about it helps.
[14:53:06] LyndsySimon: matthewd: Ideally, yeah. We're not going to be able to get away from manual testing completely, no matter what. The software is for the healthcare industry, so it's very important that we be as confident as possible that things in the UI in particular not break.
[14:53:36] LyndsySimon: In my experience, automated testing is awesome for making sure things don't break in the same way they have in the past. It's not as great for making sure they don't break in new and exciting ways.
[14:58:07] LyndsySimon: teatime: I'm aware :)
[14:58:50] LyndsySimon: teatime: Actually, I was trying to be a bit more precise. Codifying the "happy path" of expected user interaction isn't technically regression testing, and that's the primary stuff I meant.
[14:59:05] LyndsySimon: matthewd: Yes, a visual diffing tool is on my list of things to incorporate.
[15:00:21] LyndsySimon: That's not *quite* what I'm looking for. I don't want to tell them what to do, that's sorta their job description.
[15:00:51] LyndsySimon: I just want to automate what they're already having to do by hand, and since I'm already having to do it for automated testing, I'd rather just put an additional interface over that existing code than do it twice.
[15:06:09] LyndsySimon: matthewd: The data are too big for a DB restore to be a viable solution, and a big part of this is going to be navigating them through the app to the right spot. There's also the part where they're testing against a deployed instance of the application with anonymized PHI data pre-loaded. Acting against the DB directly is not out of the question, but is a fairly high barrier.
[15:06:25] LyndsySimon: I've got some ideas how to do it now - it's just a matter of making it happen.
[12:46:41] LyndsySimon: I've been asked to move all of the models of a fairly mature Rails app into a gem so they can be used in other contexts. I've not been able to find where others have done this in the past - does anyone here know where I could start?
[14:15:12] LyndsySimon: tcopeland: Thanks :) I'll read that to file it away mentally, but I have found some stuff that will keep us from doing it and convinced the people who matter in this case that it's a bad idea.
[14:15:55] LyndsySimon: I mean it's a bad idea for us because it doesn't get us closer to accomplishing what we're trying to do, not because there is anything inherent wrong with the concept.

[14:01:59] LyndsySimon: I'm looking for a generic way to convert an objects externally accessible instance variables into a hash. Is there some way to introspect Object that I'm not seeing?
[14:07:29] LyndsySimon: matthewd: Maybe this will help - https://gist.github.com/lyndsysimon/dfa513f92d6711f6b55056763ba94f44
[14:08:01] LyndsySimon: matthewd: I'm well aware of the ability to "reach in to" objects and access instance variables directly. :)
[14:11:21] LyndsySimon: I get that, I'm just surprised that there isn't an Array kept somewhere of calls to attr_reader/attr_accessor
[14:14:10] LyndsySimon: Fair enough. I can write a concern that implements this
[14:21:28] LyndsySimon: dminuoso: I don't see how would help in this particular case... but yes, I would prefer static typing for this project.
[14:21:47] LyndsySimon: konsolebox: Yes. If there isn't a built-in method to do this, I can write one easily enough.
[14:27:43] LyndsySimon: dminuoso: Awesome, I'll grok that when I get a sec. It looks useful.
[14:30:06] LyndsySimon: Here's the solution I ended up with, for this one-off use case: https://gist.github.com/lyndsysimon/3ff4e6df02702ef4b4565bf1012e4962

[13:26:50] LyndsySimon: I know Ruby has the concept of "autoload", and that Rails has a similar concept and builds on it with "eager loading". I'm looking for a way to eager load all files in a directory, preferably without hooking into Rails' `config.eager_load_paths`, since I want it to happen even when Rails' eager loading is turned off (i.e., in local development).
[13:29:05] LyndsySimon: You know what? Scratch that. I was trying to strip out part of a complex problem I'm working on, and I think I just figured out a way to avoid it entirely.
[13:29:19] LyndsySimon: I'm still interested if someone has an answer, but it's not blocking me anymore :)
[14:47:50] LyndsySimon: ljarvis: Is there any easier way to "require all files in a directory" other than enumerating them and building the require statements dynamically?
[15:07:24] LyndsySimon: ljarvis: You don't happen to have that one-liner handy, do you? My head is full of other context and I'd like at least document this.
[15:08:10] LyndsySimon: Woot, thank s:)
[15:08:36] LyndsySimon: Ah, cool, it supports pattern matching then. Even better.
[14:27:14] LyndsySimon: I keep having issues with RVM. Is there a comparable tool out there I could use?
[14:29:32] LyndsySimon: rickumali: Would you recommend it?
[14:30:09] LyndsySimon: Thank you.
[14:30:17] LyndsySimon: Reading their doc looks very promisign.
[14:30:29] LyndsySimon: I had no idea that RVM was overriding cd. That's insane.
[14:49:09] LyndsySimon: rickumali: I hate to be a pain, but I'm setting up rbenv and am not seeing what I need in their docs.
[14:49:29] LyndsySimon: rickumali: In particular, I'm not seeing an analogue to rvm's gemsets.
[14:49:54] LyndsySimon: Fair enough.
[14:51:21] LyndsySimon: ljarvis: This is slightly beyond my knowledge at the moment. My background is in Python and I fully understand how virtualenvs work there. Does Ruby have a *need* for gemsets?
[14:52:02] LyndsySimon: I'm working on projects that have Gemfiles created by bundler. I've just never used them outside of rvm
[14:52:32] LyndsySimon: havenwood: How does that reconcile with what elomatreb said? Can I have multiple versions of the same gem installed concurrently?
[14:54:02] LyndsySimon: How does Bundler do that? If I call `rails console`, for instance, is the ruby interpreter that it's calling aware of the gemfiles and able to specific the gem versions that way?
[14:54:27] LyndsySimon: havenwood: Yep, I'm familiar with the file structure :) I just need to understand what it's doing so I can troubleshoot things.
[14:56:08] LyndsySimon: Ahh, OK. So with rvm, I don't have to prefix commands because it's shimming the shell commands. With rbenv, I have to use bundle's explicit management to do things in the "environment" (which in actuality is just Bundler loading and passing the specs from the gemfiles to Ruby before executing the commands I pass in)
[14:56:09] LyndsySimon: Right?
[14:57:19] LyndsySimon: Hmm. OK. I think I'm still missing a critical piece of information or two.
[14:58:40] LyndsySimon: My system ruby is 2.4.1 (Installed via homebrew). My project's ruby is 2.3.1. I've installed it via rbenv. How do I use bundler now to install the gems from the gemfiles?
[14:59:21] LyndsySimon: elomatreb: bundler replies that my ruby version is 2.4.1
[14:59:43] LyndsySimon: Do I need to somehow "activate" the rbenv version?
[15:00:04] LyndsySimon: Yes, my system ruby is 2.4.1. I've specified 2.3.1 in .ruby-version. rbenv installed it fine.
[15:00:15] LyndsySimon: I did rehash, but I'll do it again.
[15:02:29] LyndsySimon: Maybe this will help: I'm sharing my screen at this link: https://appear.in/how-to-ruby
[15:03:16] LyndsySimon: Oh! I think I figured it out.
[15:03:49] LyndsySimon: `ruby --version` is 2.3.1. Bundler says I'm using 2.4.1. That's because I have Bundler installed in my system ruby but not in the rbenv-controlled 2.3.1.
[15:04:06] LyndsySimon: There's a `bundle` command in my system ruby, but not one in my 2.3.1 environment, therefore it isn't shimmed.
[15:04:28] LyndsySimon: havenwood: Yeah, I'm in the process of doing just that.
[15:05:37] LyndsySimon: havenwood: I see that, and now I understand exactly what `rbenv rehash` does.
[15:06:13] LyndsySimon: You have to rehash not whenever a gem is installed, but whenever a gem is installed that includes executables you want to access from the shell.
[15:06:15] LyndsySimon: Yay :)
[15:08:19] LyndsySimon: havenwood: That's a good idea, but there are other changes happening concurrently (upgrading rails). Instead, I plan to lead a project to migrate the whole team from rvm.
[15:09:16] LyndsySimon: Somewhat annoyingly, rvm requires the ruby version right now to be 'ruby-2.3.1', while rbenv wants it to be '2.3.1'. That means there's going to have to be a point where we all move over at once :(
[15:09:50] LyndsySimon: I'll look into chruby before making a recommendation.
[15:10:34] LyndsySimon: I'm comfortable doing that now. I already more fully understand rbenv than I ever did rvm. I hate magic.
[15:11:12] LyndsySimon: havenwood: Cool, thanks :)
[15:12:23] LyndsySimon: Heh. While I'm on macOS, I'll read the linux version first. I'm a Linux user using macOS, so it's easier for me to grok that way.
[15:12:36] LyndsySimon: This has all been super helpful so far.
[15:17:55] LyndsySimon: valerauko: I can't speak for Ruby, but that's the approach I've taken in the past for other projects. Just be prepared for the PR to be rejected initially, and for the people who do so to be at least a bit gruff about it :)
[15:19:02] LyndsySimon: Go for it!
[15:19:28] LyndsySimon: Feel free to shoot me a message if you want a quick code review before submitting your PR, I'd be happy to.
[15:41:27] LyndsySimon: sagax, havenwood: I'll also say that when I was playing with writing a cryptocurrency exchange, my model was to use an append-only log for all transactions. That helped me maintain an audit trail and know where I could divide work between workers concurrently and when it needed to be executed in series.
[15:44:35] LyndsySimon: havenwood: I've got chruby+ruby-install working now. So far so good - except that I need an equivalent to rehash :)
[15:45:11] LyndsySimon: havenwood: For instance, which I `gem install bundler`, I had to reload my shell session for `bundle` to point to the one I just installed. Same thing for rails.
[15:46:54] LyndsySimon: havenwood: It might be a problem with my .zshrc.
[15:49:30] LyndsySimon: Doesn't seem to be. When I install bundler, it doesn't show up on my path under I reload.
[15:50:06] LyndsySimon: Whoa. Something's weird. I don't think it's a ruby issue.
[15:51:39] LyndsySimon: https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/F8bGwD9C/Magic.%20%3A(

[16:04:14] LyndsySimon: Yeah - it's gotta be something in my shell. It appears that chruby is doing the right thing, because it got added to the directory that's first in my path, it just doesn't resolve to that. I wonder if zsh is caching the location of the executable from the previous call or something.
[16:04:17] LyndsySimon: https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/fDIPKe3l/image.png
[16:06:01] LyndsySimon: Yeah, it's totally the shell. hash isn't getting updated:

[16:09:43] LyndsySimon: It's not an Apple symbol, it's just unicode.
[16:10:38] LyndsySimon: Just like the command key - it's symbol is "PLACE OF INTEREST SIGN": ⌘
[16:11:03] LyndsySimon: Well, of course. I just mean that it's like the symbol isn't available on Linux.
[16:12:29] LyndsySimon: There's also ⎇, "ALTERNATIVE KEY SYMBOL". They're handy together.
[16:14:32] LyndsySimon: AFK. I've been working from a diner, and my battery is low enough I should walk back to work. :(
[16:54:01] LyndsySimon: pupsicle: I would actually explain that differently. Foo.bar is calling "bar", a method of "Foo". Foo.new.bar is calling "bar", a method of "Foo.new", which of course is an instance of "Foo". It's not so much a matter of the order things are happening as it is becuase of the fact that an instance of a class is a discrete object, and doesn't share methods with the class from which it is derived.
[16:55:06] LyndsySimon: You know what, scratch that. I'm overcomplicating, and thought you had defined self.bar.
[16:56:01] LyndsySimon: Yeah, I should have stopped and verified my reading of it.

[15:28:42] LyndsySimon: When defining an ActiveSupport::Concern, should instance methods be defined inside the `included` block, or directly on the module?
[13:38:21] LyndsySimon: Is it a stupid idea to have a concern that is included in both models and controllers?
[13:38:45] LyndsySimon: It's for configuration handling, which on the app I'm working on is quite unique.
[13:39:52] LyndsySimon: As in provide more detail, or just ask fewer questions in this channel? :)
[13:41:29] LyndsySimon: Our config is a cascade, with "tenant" and "department" being the levels. The concern resolves the correct config object based upon the tenant and department in context for a model or controller instance.
[13:42:38] LyndsySimon: The config object is my own creation, and is where the vast majority of the business logic lives. The concern is just the way the correct config object is resolved. It provides hooks to specify the department to which an instance of a model belongs (or to which a controller belongs)
[13:44:12] LyndsySimon: Where should I put it in the filesystem.
[13:44:39] LyndsySimon: OOoh good idea.
[13:46:26] LyndsySimon: Can you remind me in a couple of days? I'll refactor it into a gem.
[13:46:43] LyndsySimon: I'm under time pressure at the moment, and there's too much business logic in there to share it at the moment.
[14:46:31] LyndsySimon: Pretend I've got a magical concern that tells me if the current model instance is "good", or "evil". I include that concern in my `ApplicationRecord`, so it's by extension included in all my models.
[14:47:43] LyndsySimon: In my controller, let's say I've assigned the instance variable `@foo` to an instance of a model. In my view, I can use `<%= @foo.alignment =>` and it'll return either 'good' or 'evil'.
[14:49:37] LyndsySimon: Now imagine that I want to create a view partial that is included on every page of my application that has the object's alignment as an overlay on the page. I can still call `@foo.alignment` of course, but on some pages there is no `@foo`. `FooController#show` sets `@foo`, but `BarController#show` sets `@bar`.
[14:50:25] LyndsySimon: Make sense? I'm looking for a generic way to reference the primary object for the page, be it an instance of a model or a queryset.
[14:58:35] LyndsySimon: Clear as mud, I guess :)
[15:09:31] LyndsySimon: No testing is being done, lol.
[15:09:56] LyndsySimon: I'm asking if there is a Rails convention for naming the generic object. It's looking like there isn't.
[15:10:52] LyndsySimon: Yeah, I know. It's cool.
[15:11:01] LyndsySimon: 90% of why I'm asking about it is because I want to talk it out some.
[15:15:02] LyndsySimon: ACTION points out that mordof is needed by someone, and that's more than many people can ever say about themselves :)

About Us
Hi! Welcome to Sofie & Bee!
Want to know a little more about us? Well keep on reading..
My name is Shasha and I have a wonderful husband, 2 kids and a cat. Sofie & Bee was born from a sudden need to spread the message of sustainable living and what better way than to help others start their journeys with their babies!
Over the last couple of years, I noticed that my sustainable living journey had began. I had grown more and more concerned about things that I took for granted when I was younger. I began to realise that my actions had consequences and I didn't like that it might have been negative consequences.
I began to think thoughts like "Where will this single use straw I'm using end up after I throw it in the bin?" or "Did someone get paid fairly for making this shirt?" or "How many nappies have I actually thrown out?".
Unfortunately, I had lived my life not thinking about how my actions impact the Earth and after having my second child, I was keen to show my children the importance of living sustainably to ensure the generations after us can experience the Earth the way we have.
Sofie & Bee aims to provide a stepping stone to living a sustainable life, starting with our babies. Babies can produce a lot of waste, in terms of nappy waste and even clothing waste as they grow so quickly. We offer a range of products that are ethically made and made with sustainably sourced organic materials. Our products are also of high quality, so you can be sure that your clothes and modern cloth nappies last the distance.
Another bonus feature is that we source baby clothing that will comfortable fit over a modern cloth nappy bum! If you're a MCN user, you may have noticed that cloth nappies can create a bigger bum and our clothing will ensure your child is not only stylish but comfortable.
Let's go on this journey together!

NFR Wrangler Live viewing parties shine brightly on and off Las Vegas Strip.Better grab your popcorn and perhaps a drink or two while you're at it, as these fans did, for the nightly post-rodeo activities at the South Point Showroom. The Showroom hosts the go-round buckle presentations each night, followed by live music and dancing. Patrick Everson/Special to the Review-Journal.
When the sun goes down, the lights turn up for what the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo appropriately terms NFR After Dark. And while those lights certainly shine bright at viewing parties, after-parties and concerts up and down the Strip, there are plenty of great gatherings all around town.
For example, the Silverton, just a couple miles south of the Strip, holds an all-ages nightly viewing party at its Veil Pavilion. Kimiko Peterson, director of communications at the Silverton, noted that with TV screens around the entire room, patrons have a 360-degree view of all the Wrangler NFR action. Host Justin Frazell keep things lively the first four nights and last three nights of the Wrangler NFR, and there are food and beverage specials and nightly prize giveaways.
"Last year, we had so many rodeo fans telling us how much they loved our room and the setup of our viewing parties," Peterson said. "We're excited to see the viewing parties and after-parties grow to become the place to watch the NFR for rodeo fans of all ages, and enjoy the nightly entertainment and activities after the rodeo.
"This is our favorite time of year here at the casino, and our team members love having the rodeo fans on property," Peterson said. "The energy at the resort during these 10 days is something that rodeo fans and casino guests alike will enjoy."
With big hats and boots dominating the scenery over the 10-day Wrangler NFR, even the Hard Rock Hotel gets a little bit country. Ann Lackomar, director of brand marketing at the Hard Rock, said the hotel will have live viewing parties and nightly food and beverage specials.
A few blocks west of the Strip, on Tropicana Avenue, The Orleans has long been a do-drop-in during the Wrangler NFR. Owner Boyd Gaming transforms The Orleans from the Big Easy into the Big Country.
"Boyd Gaming loves the rodeo," said Jackie Ferrando, event marketing director for Boyd Gaming. "We've been a major sponsor for the last 30 years and have organized a number of nightly events and activities that have become staple must-attends for rodeo aficionados."
Each night of the Wrangler NFR kicks off at 5 p.m. with Rump's Rodeo Party, a pregame/live viewing party hosted by PRCA barrelman Justin "Rumpshaker" Rumford inside The Honky Tonk Saloon. The hotel also hosts family-friendly viewing parties in the Showroom tonight and from Sunday through Dec. 15, and in the Honky Tonk Saloon on Saturday night.
As the rodeo action wraps up, 21-and-older patrons can head to the Bourbon Street Lounge for the Buckin' Bash, where they can party and dance until 2 a.m., with live music and drink specials.
The National Finals Tonight Show takes place each evening at 10:30 p.m. at the Honky Tonk Saloon, with hosts Don Gay, Joe Beaver and Dan Miller recapping the highlights and moderating Q&A sessions with rodeo standouts.
"The National Finals Tonight Show is the perfect event for those looking for a fun party vibe, as well as a recap of the day's events. It's really the best of both worlds," Ferrando said.
"It started as five days, in the second-largest ballroom. Today, we do it in all three ballrooms, all 10 days," said South Point owner Michael Gaughan, who has long been heavily involved in the Wrangler NFR. "We get 4,000 people in the ballrooms, plus there's viewing in the showroom, and I've got the three lounge bars. They're packed, too. And in the non-lounge bars, the NFR is on the TV sets.
"The biggest thing I've ever done with rodeo is to get the PRCA to give us the live feed. All the live feed did was bring more people to town. They just want to be here for the rodeo. Some people even give their tickets away for one or two nights, just to go to the viewing parties. They're a lot of fun."
Fremont Street is fully engaged in the Wrangler NFR, too, particularly with nightly viewing parties at the Downtown Las Vegas Events Center. An enclosed facility takes over the huge lot, just caddy-corner to the rear of the D Las Vegas. The room is split in two, with a 25-foot big screen and a bar on each side and monitors around the perimeter, as well.
"We thought, 'How can you be different?'" said Jeff Victor, vice president of operations for the events center, the D and the Golden Gate. "We're doing it as a sports-centric event. The NFR is a great sport, and we cater to it. We approach it differently. It's not in a ballroom. Customers appreciate that difference. People come back each year, bring their friends, and we expect to see them again this year."
Finally, it's impossible to overlook the Strip, where many properties get in on the rodeo act. Even The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas embraces joining everyone else as Vegas transforms into Cowboy Town. Bill McBeath, president and CEO of The Cosmopolitan, said his property livestreams the Wrangler NFR each night at the sports book and hosts its Boots on the Boulevard concert series, featuring high-profile country artists.
MGM Resorts hotels aren't to be outdone, either. Perhaps most interestingly, the sports book at The Mirage clears out all its seating over the entire 10 days, making way for a nightly viewing party. The sports book even converts the elevated VIP area into a stage for post-rodeo concerts, and there's a huge dance floor on which to scoot your boots.
At the MGM Grand, Scott Sibella has ramped up the Wrangler NFR After Dark offerings in his role as president and COO. The hotel's nightly viewing party has now moved into the David Copperfield Theater, where fans can catch the action live on big screens and enter to win rodeo tickets and other prizes from Wrangler and MGM.
And if you're talking rodeo and the Wild West, you can't leave out Gilley's Saloon and Dance Hall at Treasure Island. Gilley's hosts a Wrangler NFR viewing party every night and will overflow with live entertainment throughout the 10-day rodeo.
"Gilley's is the best spot on the strip to celebrate the NFR, and we always see fantastic turnout from cowboy hat-clad rodeo fans looking for food, drinks, music and an overall good time," general manager Jerry Marlow said. "We have something going on every single night during NFR week, and we hope more folks come out to see amazing performers like Reckless Kelly on Monday and Dale Watson on Tuesday."
So even if you can't get a ticket to the rodeo, you can take in the action all over town, often with free admission. Whatever your taste in hotel-casinos or viewing parties, you're sure to find something suitable in what's become big business for Vegas — catering to the rodeo crowd.
"I'm not impressed by much, but over the last 20-plus years that I've been involved in the National Finals Rodeo, I have watched it continue to grow and grow, outside the capacity of Thomas & Mack Center," McBeath said. "The only way for it to continue with its expansion was to create the mecca for Western cultural events and programming within the city and beyond the Thomas & Mack Center."
Mission accomplished. Indeed, when the sun goes down, the day is just beginning during the Wrangler NFR.

How to manage timing of acceptances?
leb64 posted a topic in Pre-PA General DiscussionHi all, I'm currently in the interview process, and I'm somewhat confused about how to manage acceptances (should they come...). My first interview is in a week, the next one is in 2 weeks, and a top choice program, which I haven't heard back from yet, doesn't start interviews until late-October. (Still waiting to hear from a few more programs, too.) So, do prospective PA students in this position just make deposits as necessary to hold places in programs they're interested in as acceptances come in, if they're still waiting to hear back from their first or second choices? Is it really disrespectful to accept an offer from a program, make the deposit, and then change your mind, or is this just an expected part of the process? If I'm offered an October interview for that top choice program, I could theoretically end up paying deposits to 3 separate programs, which seems absurd... Granted, the chances I'd actually get 3 acceptances are probably low, but even 2 would be tricky. What am I missing? Thank you :)
Security Deposit Extension
pabound2016 posted a topic in Pre-PA General DiscussionHi everyone, I was notified to submit a security deposit to one of the schools I was accepted in. Has anyone had any luck with extending its deadline by contacting the schools? Thanks! :)

"Keeping track and understanding innovation is difficult and time consuming; but understanding how it will help your business is critical." Marcus Puddy – Managing Director
'Innovation' in Management Information
Claude Elwood Shannon (April 30, 1916 – February 24, 2001) was an American mathematician, electrical engineer, and cryptographer and was known as "the father of information theory". He stated;
"Information is the resolution of uncertainty."
The complexities of managing a fleet are numerous so the more accurate information we have at our finger tips, the more informed our decisions will be. Informed decisions lead to a more efficient business which, in turn, leads to maximised profit.
The PVS Group – helping fleets to make the right decisions in an ever-changing world.
European freight transportation is responsible for 20% of all EU transport. In accordance with the 'Paris Agreement', the EU has established legislation that targets of cutting emissions by 30% (against the 2005 emissions output) will be achieved by 2030. The emission targets for all sectors (Transport currently resides outside of the 'Emission Trading System' (ETS)) by 2050 should be 80% - 95% of the 1995. To achieve this, the transport sector, over time, must migrate to 'zero emission vehicles'.
What does all this mean?
In short, it means that all EU organisations operating commercial vehicles need to start creating a 'programme of change' such that the emissions targets can be reached whilst at the same time minimising disruption to service and, more importantly, company profit.
To achieve this seamless transition, it will require a thorough understanding of:
New legislation and regulation
New vehicle technology and its appropriateness for your business
The long-term political aspirations affecting transport
Innovation is the division within the PVS group that diligently tracks the above in order to offer tailored support to companies wanting to keep one-step ahead of this transport evolution.
The Innovation team is constantly feeding relevant 'transport change' and innovation through to the PVS fleet advisory team within the PVS Fleet division. This means that when you engage with the PVS Fleet team, you can be sure that you are receiving advice that 'future proofs' your business against legislative change and that the vehicles are appropriate and in line with EU legislation.
If you have concerns over whether you or your business has the necessary resource to make the right choices in these changing times, then speak with PVS Group.
The PVS Fleet Management Interface
Innovation can take many forms. Real time fleet management information is an innovative way of maximising the efficiencies within your fleet.
PVS has developed a 'Fleet Management Interface' that allows specific users the ability to access and analyse fleet data (vehicle groups to individual vehicles) in order to identify anomalies in vehicle operating costs and forecast residual value.
PVS just need the 'Vehicle Registration Mark' of your fleet vehicles together with the mileage data. PVS will then create your Management Information Account where you can login and view your data. The data is presented in simple terms and is easy to understand via our unique 'dashboard' presentation.
You can choose the level of PVS support you require to manage your fleet optimally.
Talk to PVS today about setting up your management dashboard.

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Success Case Study: Luckin Coffee - A local coffee chain with an internet business model" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
Success Case Study: Luckin Coffee focuses on the launch of the Luckin Coffee chain in China, which adopted an internet business model to disrupt the country's fast-growing coffee category. It delivers crucial "what?", "why?", and "so what?" analysis to impart valuable lessons that can increase the prospects of a successful product launch.
Foodservice has evolved markedly in the digital age; every aspect of eating out, from product choice and convenience-seeking, to the dining experience and payment, have adapted to keep up with connectivity dependence.
This is no more evident than in the coffee category, where mobile payment and delivery on demand are becoming just as important as a cafe having Wi-Fi and a coffee being Instagrammable. The new imperative for coffee chains is to make the consumption experience seamless across the online and offline worlds.
Key Highlights
- One of the keys to Luckin's success was confining the purchasing process to the smartphone, which resulted in a seamless brand experience from promotion redemption to product delivery.
- Despite its tech start-up mentality, Luckin was careful not to underestimate the power of offline marketing in gaining broad and repetitive exposure. The strategy of employing major celebrities as brand ambassadors on billboards across the country indirectly communicated superior quality for the brand.
- Underscoring the brand's focus on customer acquisition over short-term profit, Luckin's launch was accompanied by a number of attention-grabbing price promotions and deals. The allure of these promotions led to a surge in interest and, ultimately, new customers.
Companies Featured
- Luckin Coffee
- Starbucks
- McDonald's
- Alibaba
- Amazon
- DiDi Chuxing
- Uber

Eric Whitacre's "Sleep" began as a choral composition, setting the text of the Robert Frost poem "Stopping By Woods on a Snowy Evening." Because of some difficulty securing permissions to use the text, Whitacre came up with the solution of asking poet Charles Anthony Silvestri to set new words to the already-composed music. The piece has been transcribed for several ensembles including cello octet by cellist Jeffrey Zeigler.

Hey guys. How is everyone? Sorry would try to be more regular from now on. Lots of changes but the most relevant one is that I have started my job and currently I am in Bengaluru.
I went to attend Shaan's concert yesterday with my other two friends from office. The concert was organized by a Bengali club. Durga Puja is starting from 14th and the celebrations have already begun for the bengalis. A lot of bengalis were there and they were all very enthusiastic. The arrangement was quite different from what we had expected. Seats were arranged very properly and the hall was covered from above, so more than a concert the whole thing had an appearance of some society function kind of thing. Well, we found some nice seats at the back under the fan and sat there. As we reached before time and the concert had not yet started, so we went out and had some cold drinks & vada pav. Then some time later the concert was started by June Mukherjee (some female singer I have not heard of before) and after a few songs Shaan entered.
He started around 8:30 and continued till 11. He started with a line of "behti hawa sa tha wo" and then moved onto some other songs. It was awesome. As there were lots of bengalis, he sang one or two songs in bengali also. He made comments like "Is it Bengaluru or Calcutta ??" and "Bengaluru would soon become Calcutta", as there was a huge percentage of bengalis present in the concert. Bengalis went crazy at his comments. He sang one kannad song also and promised people that when he return back to Bengaluru in two weeks he would be prepared with some good kannada numbers.
When everyone was busy enjoying his nice songs, lots of things were going in my mind and it was quiet hard for me not to pen down everything then and there. My brain was justling with my senses which were trying to enjoy the awesome music and songs. But the brain wanted compeletey different thing. It wanted me to notice the difference in everybody's priorities and the difference in everybody's life. The crowd was going crazy and people even went up to the stage to shake hands with him. They were standing besides the stage to dance to his tunes, to get a closer glimpse of him and to bring themselves to his notice. Towards the end of the concert I also went nearer to the stage and it felt good. Everyone wanted to get acknowledged by him in some or the other way. They were there so that he would at least smile at them or wave to them or listen to their request for a particular song. Nobody seem to be worried about anything else in the world. Their worlds had shrunk to Shaan and themselves. This was the scene on one side and on the other side was Shaan.
He must have been thinking different kinds of things about the people present there. Maybe the hot weather was troubling him. Maybe he was secretly wishing to finish off soon and fly back to Mumbai to record his new song or fly to Brazil to start his vacation. The people were happy that he was trying to sing in their regional languages and it did not matter to them that he was doing it correctly or not. He was noticing all this. This day was like any other day for him or may be even worse. But on the other hand people were making videos and taking his pictures to show them later to their relatives and friends and flaunt happily that they had attended "Shaan's" concert.
What a varied spectrum of thoughts!!!!!!
And the thing which made me feel petite was the small instinct in me or the wish in my heart that somehow he may notice me and maybe wave at me. That little something in me which wanted him to acknowledge my presence in this world around him. He is doing what he likes, he sing songs and this is his passion. He is doing it perfectly, no doubt about that. People admire him, respect him because he is good at his stuff.
But have you ever asked yourself that do you admire your own self? Is there someone who looks upto us? Well the answer to this question may differ from person to person. I do not know what do I want in my life but the important question is that do I have the courage to realize my passions and stand up to acknowledge them and start following them. The day this happens would be the day when my subconscious mind would stop pestering me trying to remind me of some incomplete tasks or some important things which need my urgent attention. He sings with such a passion that it brings out the best in him. I feel that many of us and I my ownself want to find out that little something which may drive me crazy and then nobody else's acknowledgment matter to me. In hindi there is a saying " Khudi ko kar buland itna ki khuda tujhse khud pooche ki bata bandey teri raja kya hai", which means that rise so high that God himself asks you what you wish for.

Explore EcologyDonate
Organization Mission
Explore Ecology educates over 30,000 youth annually, inspiring them to engage with the natural world, think critically, and become passionate environmental stewards. Our programs include School Gardens, the Watershed Resource Center, Environmental Education, and Art From Scrap.
Social Change Project:
Growing Healthy Minds, Bodies and Little Green Thumbs
Explore Ecology's School Gardens serve more than 14,000 children a year. Using the garden as an outdoor classroom, our Educators teach students about Planting, Cultivating, Harvesting, Composting, and Nutrition. Children who garden spend valuable time outside, develop STEAM and analytical abilities, cultivate a deeper understanding of ecology, and feel an increased responsibility to care for nature. When school cafeterias serve school-grown produce, students gain a sense of pride and eat more fruits and vegetables at school and at home. Your donation will keep our School Gardens program thriving and alive with possibility for students at 38 schools throughout Santa Barbara County.
Our school garden is a magical space, that encourages the students to learn science, respect for the environment, and get some fresh air and sunshine. It's especially important because I want nature and the outdoors to be an integral part of my daughters' education; the garden has been the most effective place for that at school.

Sean M. Maloney has worked for the Royal Military College of Canada as a teacher in the War Studies Programme and as a Strategic Studies Advisor for the Canadian Defence Academy. As a war historian, Maloney has worked as the historian for 4 Canadian Mechanized Brigade, as a director in the Department of National Defence and the Canadian Army, and as a consultant to NATO and Canada's Privy Council Office. Throughout his work in advisory roles, Maloney has conducted field research in the Middle East and the Balkans, as well as throughout Asia. Maloney's area of expertise is reflected in his books. In Canada and UN Peacekeeping: Cold War by Other Means, 1945-1970, published in 2002, Maloney gives a thorough examination of Canada during the Cold War years. Canada's peacekeeping, according to Maloney, had little to do with goodwill, and more to do with the practical necessity of keeping the Soviet Union under control. Maloney cites several such instances in which Canada acted in its own self-interest while appearing to promote a foreign policy of neutrality. Discussing the conflicts in Kashmir in 1948, Report Newsmagazine critic Nathan M. Greenfield commented that "Hindu-Muslim violence in the disputed territory may have appalled all, but what moved the UN to authorize the use of Canadian (and other) forces was Pakistan's veiled threat to seek help 'elsewhere' if war broke out. This simply could not be allowed, for as Prof. Maloney shows, Pakistan hosted three U.S. strategic bomber bases."
One of Maloney's most widely reviewed works is Enduring the Freedom: A Rogue Historian in Afghanistan, which was published in 2005. The volume is a memoir and travelogue of the time Maloney spent in Afghanistan during the Afghanistan War. As a historian who worked with the German, Canadian, Irish, Romanian, and Dutch troops via the International Security Assistance Force, Maloney has an unusual perspective on the conflict and its participants. Maloney also has a vast understanding of Afghanistan's history, both leading up to and through 2003. Reviewers applauded the book, commenting on the memoir's unique perspective, especially the in-depth historical analysis that is lacking in many similar memoirs by journalists. Furthermore, Lester W. Grau, writing in the Military Review, found that the memoir is "a hoot," adding: "Blunt, uncompromising, and a brilliant analyst without a speck of political correctness about him, [Maloney] covers the good and the bad with a measured sense of proportionality."

I'm trying to create a relatively simple background for an SVG image. I created an equivalent in GIMP by applying a radial gradient from the center to the edge and then applying the "spread" filter.
I have the following code that achieves a similar result, at least in Inkscape.
However, if I rasterize it into a PNG file or open it in Chrome (at 100% zoom), I only get the gradient without noise.
however once againWhen I zoom in or out of Chrome, the filter is applied correctly.
Is it possible that this file has a problem that only appears when the image is displayed in the size specified in the view box? Is there anything else I can not see?
I would have compared my PNG issue with the same issue this poster had, if not for the strange behavior I only notice when my browser is set to 100% zoom.
Many Thanks!
