The Ip Man film series really lost its way by number 4. Pretty much an anti-US propaganda piece. They didn’t even hold it together with decent fight scenes, which were over the top wire sequences. Might have to rewatch Prodigal Son to get that elegant Wing Chun experience.

I gave another talk at the West Midlands Ruby User Group on routing, both using plain Rack apps and in the Lotus framework.
Despite some initial misgivings, I really fell for Vagrant. Consistent repeatable develoment environments, what’s not to love? Well, mostly the lack of speed. There are tricks that help, like nfs, but a full VM is comparatively slow compared to running native. Also, though I try to keep things consistent by using provisioners like Ansible, there still seems to be some discrepencies between environments. Maybe there is another way…

In my previous post I talked about how to make an IRC bot in Node.js that would store messages in a CouchDB instance. This time, I’ll look at how we might retrieve and display the stored messages.
