Created March 19, 2015 18:52
An abstract decorator that allows decorated Active Record records to be assigned to associations without raising an ActiveRecord::AssociationTypeMismatch error.
require 'delegate'
# An abstract decorator useful for decorating Active Record objects.
class ActiveRecordDecorator < SimpleDelegator
# A proxy for the decorator class to allow the delegation of certain class
# methods to the decorated object's class.
class ClassProxy < SimpleDelegator

Securing ExpressJS

tl;dr

  1. Don't run as root.
  2. For sessions, set httpOnly (and secure to true if running over SSL) when setting cookies.
  3. Use the Helmet for secure headers: https://github.com/evilpacket/helmet
  4. Enable csrf for preventing Cross-Site Request Forgery: http://expressjs.com/api.html#csrf
  5. Don't use the deprecated bodyParser() and only use multipart explicitly. To avoid multiparts vulnerability to 'temp file' bloat, use the defer property and pipe() the multipart upload stream to the intended destination.

Semantic helpers for responsive website implementations using bootstrap-sass. Specifically adds responsive replacements for the makeRow() and makeColumn() mixins included in Twitter Bootstrap.
@mixin row() {
margin-left: $gridGutterWidth * -1;
@media (max-width: 767px) { margin-left: 0; }
@media (min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 979px) { margin-left: $gridGutterWidth768 * -1; }
@media (min-width: 1200px) { margin-left: $gridGutterWidth1200 * -1; }
@include clearfix();
}
@mixin column($columns: 1, $offset: 0) {
float: left;

Find oldest lines in git repository
#!/usr/bin/perl
# This script parses Git blame's "porcelain" output format and
# ascertains the oldest lines of code seen.
#
# If you want to perform a custom report, just define your own callback
# function and invoke parse_porcelain() with it.
#
# The expected input format is slightly modified from raw `git blame
# -p`. Here is an example script for producing input:

How to add validations to a specific instance of an active record object?
class Banana < ActiveRecord::Base; end
banana = Banana.new
banana.valid? #=> true
banana.singleton_class.validates_presence_of :name
banana.valid? #=> true - why did the validation not work?
banana.class.validates_presence_of :name
banana.valid? #=> false - as we'd expect...but now...
