**Pics Traffic** · 07-17-2008, 07:28 PM

yes, that too

**st0ned** · 07-17-2008, 07:35 PM

So you are calling yourself a n00b after being on this board since 04? Hmm, something doesn't seem right.

I'd agree... I think it's your obtuseness.

Ah, no. I’m just telling what they shouldn’t be doing when they get old enough to drink. Are you old enough to drink, son?

I guess I shouldn't have made the assumption that a seasoned webmaster would be able to accomplish the task without complications whether under the influence or not.

I would bet money that you looked up the definition yourself.

Yep..I've been there man. For some reason I thought half a bottle of Jamesons would make me a far superior programmer(who can walk the line of not backing up) than I actually am.

I used to code perl through the night while drinking and smoking on occasion. It was interesting to see what I woke up with the next day. Sometimes I would wake fresh to find some really cool features with only a couple bugs to work out. Others I would spend days figuring out what I had done, what files had been changed, and how to fix a broken down site. Destroyed quite a few databases too.

It would probably amaze to know how many webmasters work, and get real shit done while on different "intoxicants".

How would you do it?

PS: You have 3 scrolling frames on your website, Netscape 2 is calling

Yeah subversion for sure.

I use assembla.com for my middle sized projects they have Track/SVN support as well so you can have your repository there.

Three scrolling frames? The only site in my sig I own is adultapi, and its a temporary page until my designer gets me what I need.

I would use subversion for tracking changes.

Code:

kris@core:/var/www/mysite$ svn diff app/models/topic.rb 
Index: app/models/topic.rb
===================================================================
--- app/models/topic.rb	(revision 13)
+++ app/models/topic.rb	(working copy)
@@ -10,6 +10,6 @@
   named_scope :parents, :conditions => [ 'parent_id IS NULL' ]
   
   def self.recent(limit = 5)
-    find(:all, :limit => limit)
+    parents.find(:all, :limit => limit)
   end
-end
\ No newline at end of file
+end
kris@core:/var/www/mysite$

I just host Trac on my dev server. I don't like other places having access to my work.

intoxicated? haha

**brandonstills** · 07-18-2008, 02:38 AM

that's what undo is for

**GrouchyAdmin** · 07-18-2008, 01:38 PM

Fuck anybody using git and subversion.

I took the time to use CVS, I'm damn well using CVS.

..unless there's more than 5 people on the project; then it's time to go to subversion.
