Mysterious codes

posted in computing |

Today I took the time to install “Ruby On Rails” which has received a lot of press recently in the web development circles I pretend to frequent. After following a number of recipe pages and creating another MySQL instance, something ran… I guess the next problem will be to figure out what I did. It appears that the Ruby server has to be running for any of it to work, so until I find the script again all is safe. The ease with which the stuff ran is usually inversely proportional (another of those terms I learned in university) to something else. How clear and limpid are the waters in the data pool.

I also learned a wee bit more about how closely related we are to siblings, cousins and the ilk. One site explained that while in North America roughly one marriage in a thousand involves two cousins (if it was only one, or more that two I would be really confused), our neighbours in Saudi Arabia approach eighty percent saturation. One more reason to let your children circulate in an area larger than the usual kitchen party.
