		<title>Rack, Nginx, Custom HTTP header, HTTP_ and _</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A while back, I was working with an application that used custom headers. Applications use custom HTTP header to transfer domain specific information, either in request or response. Earlier the trend was to prepend &#8220;X-&#8221; to the custom header, but since June 2012, this approach has been deprecated. I used rack-test to write some tests [...]]]></description>

		<title>RVM and DTrace fun</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The first think we learn as programmers is DRY i.e. Don&#8217;t Repeat yourself yet we programmers break that principle all the time, sometimes unknowingly, and sometimes on purpose. Writing a gem is easy, but why write one from scratch when one can extend and improve an existing gem. Anyways, just my opinion. I never understood [...]]]></description>

		<title>What does Spring bring?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For non-programmers, Spring symbolises sunshine, warm breeze and holiday season. However, the story is a little bit different for Programmers. Yes, Spring brings timezone issues for Programmes. In other words, the moment of truth is upon us now and it&#8217;s time to check your timezone code. I spotted two obvious issues, and both are somewhat [...]]]></description>

		<title>Speed up tests in Rails</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Testing has always been part of the Rails framework, right from the beginning. The whole TDD concept became hugely popular after Rails was adopted in the mainstream. It has been around but Web applications were tested in a different manner 10 years ago. On my first day as a Java Developer, I was told by [...]]]></description>

		<title>Getting Clearance test suite to green</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The title could be slightly misleading but I am not talking about installing clearance in your Rails application. This post is just a small note to myself since I had considerable difficulties in getting the clearance gem&#8217;s test suite working in my local environment. It&#8217;s a very trivial detail that I missed or rather overlooked [...]]]></description>

		<title>ActiveModel API and Parameter Object design pattern</title>
		<description><![CDATA[About 3 months ago, I was working on this piece of code which had some &#8220;virtual models&#8221;. Virtual models are the entities that are well defined models except they are never persisted to the database. They are just kept in memory and discarded. You could by all means persist them but I didn&#8217;t have to [...]]]></description>

		<title>What I learnt by presenting at SRUG</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I always wanted to do a technical presentation and it finally happened on 29th March 2011 at Woking. I just think putting yourself in front of 20-30 people and to respond to their queries is a courageous task and I am quite pleased to have experienced it now. Well, it all started off with a [...]]]></description>

There are few things I am looking for in a bookmarking tool: 1. I don&#8217;t want to pay for it. 2. It should have a nice interface to work with. 3. It should have [...]]]></description>
