  1. Re:The best way to refactor an SQL Application.... by einhverfr · · Score: 1 · on Refactoring SQL Applications

    see http://www.sqlonrails.org/ for why you are wrong. SOR is a great app framework!

    Actually, though there are some things that SQL is very, very good at, but you are right that people often do the wrong sorts of things in it. My favorite approach is to use SQL stored procs to do named queries and then put processing the results of those queries into the middleware or thick client level.

  2. Re:What a false dichotomy! by nightowl03d · · Score: 1 · on Thinking about Rails? Think Again

    Actually rather than waiting to decide whether I need to configure the database layer, or whether I need to use Rails' full support for transactions, or when to use finder_sql or find_by_sql, I prefer to go directly to http://www2.sqlonrails.org/ and just DO IT!

    Wait...

    Did you think this was a *real* product? Yes? There's obviously a reason for that, too -- ignorance.

    This site is a spoof, making light-hearted fun of Ruby on Rails, Web 2.0, et cetera. The part of the joke is that you shouldn't need any specific database in a real agile environment. Then again, jokes that are over-explained wind up being less funny.

    I'm more of a Postgres guy, anyway, and I think PHP is the spawn of the devil. If you're interested in understanding, do a quick comparison of the following sites, and come back with a worldview that goes beyond the purview of your toolset.

    When the article's second sentence indicates the author's desire for help with agile development, my post is considered FUNNY .

    The screencast is probably the funniest thing I've seen all day. It has lots of amusing little details that made me smile. This mirror seems pretty fast: http://screencast17.sqlonrails.org/video/screencas t2_lq.mov
