aiCorp on #365 Thread-Safety (pro) 2013-05-26 13:08:01

Hi, I got this question. What if in the bar action, instead of saying

          ruby
        
def bar
  count = @@count
  count += 1
  @@count = count
  render text: "#{@@count}"
end

The developer can just type as:

          ruby
        
def bar
  @@count += 1
  render text: "#{@@count}"
end

Is my last code considered to be thread-safe?

In Java, we may need to put a keyword 'volatile' on variables of an object which is shared across different threads. What about Ruby in our case ??

Thanks if you could let me know

aiCorp on #115 Model Caching (revised) 2013-05-23 05:53:05

Hi Guys,
Not sure how scalable model caching is?
In a sense, it looks like we are building a "cached mini DB"..
in a scenario with thousands (or millions) of records , you will end up requiring more and more memory.

aiCorp on #325 Backbone on Rails Part 2 (pro) 2012-03-29 03:07:03

Made our heads hurt the first time but made a lot more sense after watching it again! Great work.

We found that it pairs up nicely with the Backbone Codeschool course, which let you play with the individual MVC components one by one, and then your Railscasts show the overall architecture of a Backbone app and how the individual bits come together.

There seem to be a few interesting Backbone plugins springing up in the community - Marionette, LayoutManager, ModelBinding and Forms to name just a few we've come across - any chance of a screencast covering some of these?
