Game Sites Design Survey: Examples and Current Practices (38)
on
Smashing Magazine (874) permalink
Written by Youri Souiah Game websites are a little bit of a mystery. You won’t find them in the popular CSS-showcases since they are seldom fully CSS-based; however, they also rarely show up in sites that collect best Flash sites. The FWA, for example, has added only one game site this year. This is odd, because there are usually roughly hundred quality titles released each month, each with their own website.

Named Scope: It's Not Just for Conditions, Ya Know? (20)
on
Ryan's Scraps - Blog (6) permalink
Named scopes in Rails are great, everybody knows that. They’re usually used to create granular, chainable sets of SQL conditions that nicely encapsulate your domain query logic. Here’s a simple example: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 class Article < ActiveRecord::Base # Get all articles that have been published named_scope :published, :conditions => ['published = ?', true] # Get all articles that were created recently named_scope :recent, lambda { ...Shared by Calvin (3) Carl Fyffe (6) Chip Vanek (9) digidigo (6) dingyi (13) Geoffrey Wiseman (17) hac0demon (31) James Mead (0) Jana (13) Jason (0) jetienne (20) John (6) Koen Van der Auwera (6) Matt (2) Nolan Eakins (5) Pickles (12) Robby Colvin (12) veilleperso (2) zapnap (34) 無名 (8)- Geoffrey Wiseman said: Named scopes are such a good idea -- do a fine job of intention-revealing for SQL.

7 Principles Of Clean And Optimized CSS Code (296)
onBy Tony White Some of you may remember the days when 30KB was the recommended maximum size of a web page, a value which included HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Flash, and images. I find with every new project with even the slightest bit of complexity, it’s not long before that 30 KB ideal is well out of my reach.
