Standup 10/01/2008: where is the to_date function in ruby/rails world?

Pivotal Labs
Wednesday, October 1, 2008

Interesting Things

  • One of the teams was trying to reopen the Time class to make to_date public. Another pivot noticed that there is no built in to_date in Time class in ruby. ActiveSupport has a to_date method on Time class that is public. The most interesting one is that there is a private to_date that is added to Time class when you include Yaml.

  • We have git brown bag today on how to use git with the Pivotal Process.

Other stuff

  • We are looking for one more unix system administrator preferably with scalability experience to help with our infrastructure. The job description is here. Well there are obvious benefits and then there is also free breakfast :)
