Stupid Ruby tricks
Over at work, I’m rapidly getting up to speed on Ruby and Rails. It’s fun and a little wacky (and, not to mention, very fast-paced for us right now). This snipped cracked me up when I saw Jared use it while debugging.
class Object
def wtf!
raise (self.respond_to?(:pretty_inspect) ? self.pretty_inspect : self.inspect)
end
end
Totally unnecessary, but man is it fun to type request.wtf! when doing initial debugging on a controller.
