I'm in the unenviable position of my MacBook Pro (2015 vintage) crashing regularly – once yesterday, twice the day before, once the day before. I used to have an uptime measured in the tens of days – there have been periods when I had an uptime measured, on this computer and this OS version, of 100 plus days. And now I have this bit of pathetic: ❯ uptime 7:04 up 16:23, 79 users, load averages: 5.52 26.30 57.61 Yep. That's 16 hou....

Your Rails 6 master key is located in: config/credentials/production.key and it is likely stored as a hidden file. I believe that this is generated when the project is generated but I'm not 100% certain. See this Reddit post .

Sometimes people ask me what my setup looks like for remote work. I decided to try and keep a more-or-less updated list of the hardware and software I’m using.

As we look into the way engineers audit their code bases, we see a strong adoption of automated security tooling, according to the Snyk State of Open Source Security report 2019, with 65% of respondents confirming that observation. It is also important to point out that, even when automated security tools are employed, 79% of the respondents still use security code reviews.

With every data breach disclosed, organizations become more aware of the need to address security early on and throughout the SDLC to ensure customer privacy and assets, feature security, and delivery speed. To do it all well, DevSecOps must be driven by security, but powered by developers.

The combination of Rails 6 and Ruby 2.7, or perhaps just Rails 6, introduced some new deprecation warnings and, lately, I've been seeing this cruft constantly: rails test test/models/ Running via Spring preloader in process 34024 /Users/sjohnson/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.7.0/gems/activemodel-6.0.2.1/lib/active_model/type/integer.rb:13: warning: Using the last argument as keyword parameters is deprecated; maybe ** should be added to the call /User....

More than a decade using RSpec has left me flummoxed in terms of "classical" Rails testing. I'm on a new project built using the Jumpstart application template and all the tests are standard Rails tests so here's a quick recap that I wrote, well, to force myself to step back in time and go "old school". And if you don't like my version then you should really read this . And if you are using Devise for authentication then you really must....

Let's have a discussion about all the kinds of trust stores found on Unix-like operating systems. For those not in the know, trust stores are places where the operating sytems generally, or the specific software, stores private and public keys (asymmetric), trusted CAs, and symmetric keys (decryption keys).

Truckquake is the poor portmanteau (poortmanteau?) I’m going to use to describe earthquakes that I experience when I’m in the truck. Earthquakes are a relatively common phenomenon in California. According to the California Department of Conservation , there are ~200 “potentially hazardous” faults in the state, and they generate an average of “two or three” quakes per year registering 5.5 or higher on the Richter scale, which i..

Pundit , a Rails gem that my former boss, Taylor Williams, taught me is a tool for "simple, robust and scalable authorization system" and the more I play with authorization, the more true I find that. This blog post lays out how to get started with Pundit with more details coming down the road. I will freely admit that when Taylor taught me Pundit, I grokked about maybe 1/10th of 1/10th of what he taught me (the project I worked on unde....
