That’s why I almost always comment on Hacker News or any forum where I see people still spreading old narratives about #Ruby and #Rails and try to present facts and debunk false statements.

Quote from Amanda: "Your intent is to playfully mock this common misconception, but in a way, you're just reinforcing it. It’s no longer 'people' saying Rails doesn’t scale, it’s Rails devs themselves constantly repeating it. Can we please stop?"

I was looking at ye olde Rails gem "acts_as_list" and discovered https://github.com/brendon/positioning

This seems like a solid evolution of that idea. I can tell the author has learned a lot about this category of rails functionality.

I don't love how it has locks and juggles positions to avoid unique index violations I think that can be avoided in postgresql with a deferred unique constraint and a transaction, but not every db supports that (not as portable).

Simple positioning for Active Record models. Contribute to brendon/positioning development by creating an account on GitHub.

I have published a simple ActiveModel serializer called Barley. It is very, very fast, easy to use, and it comes with caching and type-checking baked in. Here is a little introduction... #ruby #rails #barley
