This is similar to this question. What I am asking though, is which LOLCODE interpreter should I pick based on these criteria:
1) Works well and is up-to-date
2) Ease of install - I've looked before and couldn't find one which I found easy to install.
Please feel free to give your suggestions and opinions, I haven't looked in a number of months and am curious as to what people think, and I look forward to learning it.
EDIT: I am just doing this to learn LOLCODE. Why? Because I can and I think it would be fun to declare variables with ICANHAZ and end programs with KTHXBAI. I'm really just curious. I would really prefer that it be as close to spec as possible. I don't care if it's open or closed source and it can run in either Windows (my desktop) or Linux (my laptop). Hope this helps!
EDIT 2: I have downloaded the LOLCODE compiler available here. However, I am having trouble figuring out some of the instructions so I am still open to any suggestions for any other interpreters/compilers.
I highly recommend repl.it. It's online, but available for download. It also has other languages like Emoticon, Python, JavaScript and many others. Here's a complete list...
Ruby
Python
Lua
Scheme
QBasic
Forth
Javascript
Javascript.next
Move
Kaffeine
CoffeeScript
Emoticon
Brainf***
LOLCODE
Unlambda
Bloop
Unlike the name implies, it has a scripting box right next to the REPL. A perfect setup I believe.
My friend created once LOLCODE interpreter for some project on our Univ. It requires Ruby with some gems, but I don't remember exactly which. I can update answer later when I have time to check it by myself. Here is link to github repository.

Anyone have a way to get the Bootstrap 3 docs to print like they appear on the getbootstrap.com website? If you try to print the doc by using your browser's PRINT button, the docs don't come out too good.
I dont' have access to the internet at work, so I need a good paper copy of the Bootstrap 3 docs!
Try using Google Chromes print function. I just tested it and it seems to be looking pretty good!
Another way I can think of is the Safari reader function. There is a button in the head bar of safari on the right hand side that states "Reader" and gives you a pretty good format of the sites text. This would be the way I'd do it.
Hope that helps in any way.
It's not practical to try to print Bootstrap's complete documentation. If you're trying to learn the basics, then I'd highly suggest finding a resource in pdf format such as this one .Bootstrap's Cheatsheet However, without learning the basics, that won't work either. I'd really suggest visiting Treehouse. They have a video here: http://teamtreehouse.com/library/treehouse-workshops/building-websites-with-bootstrap-3 that does a good job. They also have excellent courses that I believe they allow you to view for free. They'll give you enough info to make that cheatsheet make more sense. That's how I learned.

Hi i'm starting to test data persistance for iOS and i want to use some databases, i tried few project with the command line but i would love to start using a software that will speed up the process.
I read already a post on here where an user listed few software from a website.
Here i copy the link he shared,
http://www.sqlite.org/cvstrac/wiki?p=ManagementTools
i would love to know if any of you tested those software, and which one you raccomand.
On many books i read they use a firefox plugin, but i find firefox already too slow to add such a powerful plugin.
Please if you find this question stupid, don't flag or downvote. I looked for a similar topic and i didn't find the answer i wanted. Thank you
I've always used SQLite Database Browser. It's free, easy to use and gets the job done.
http://sqlitebrowser.sourceforge.net/
I have used Base: available on the MAC App Store:
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/base/id402383384?mt=12
I've used Arango Db. It's free http://www.arangodb.org

I've been using ruby on rails for the last 4 months or so and I've been really enjoying the whole concept of open source. I know it's not exclusive to ruby/rails but coming from windows programming this is my first real exposure to it.
I want to "give back" what I can but I don't feel like I can contribute any worthwhile open source projects or gems of my own. So I figured a good place to start is by documenting or writing tests for some existing projects.
Could you guys please point me to a few possible options? I'd prefer projects that are pretty active but at the same time not too complex (since I'm not very good with ruby right now).
This might be a subjective question but at this point I have no idea where to even start. So even subjective answers would be much appreciated.
Kudos! There are several ways to participate.
I think the question to ask yourself is, what are your areas of expertise? What subject area to you have a solid knowledge of? For example, if you had experience with Web Services, the Savon project is in dire need of documentation, examples, etc. If you have Java experience, there are many burgeoning JRuby projects that could use a hand.
You can check the Ruby Toolbox, which lists gems in categories by popularity. Look in the areas that appeal to you and check out the popular gems. The vast majority of gems have github repositories. If you haven't learned git, I highly recommend it. It's super easy to branch a project, update it. Look for projects which have a good test suite, which will not only help you figure out how it works, but will give you good examples for testing your additions/fixes.
Also, the Ruby and Rails documentation at APIdock allows for comments. If you come across something that's not entirely clear in the Rails documentation, for example, you can add a clarifying comment or examples.
You are doing a great thing for the Rails community. +1 to you!
I'm also new to rails. I can tell you I had a difficult time learning the ins and outs of aweseome_nested_set because of no examples. The readme lacked any real use case examples such as building an entire tree, outputting the first and second level only, etc.
Although it could be that I am new and was not around for acts_as_nested_set to learn the fundamentals of that plugin (which awesome_nested_set is built on, I believe)

I know the xxm install guide is a lot to read and doesn't get you up and running as fast and easily as it would when you've seen it done.
So I've installed xxm on a clean Windows install, and made screenshots at every step. I haven't made much tutorials before, and wouldn't even know where to start to make one of those walk-through video's with a voice-over...
Is it clear enough? How could I improve it? (First thing that comes up to mind is I should have set the screen to 800x600)
Should I extend this tutorial with how to include fragments on pages or how to debug a project, or should I make new tutorials about those?
For a programmer or an I.T. person (who is already technically-inclined) that understands the shortcuts and shorthand notations (virt-dir, for example), it's quite good. Although, looking at the website, it should cover running as a standalone HTTP server, as this is claimed to be supported.

Are there any programs or IDEs that support refactoring for Ruby or RoR?
The best refactoring tool is good test coverage. If your tests cover your code and they all past you can just make whatever changes you want and the tests will find any dependencies you have broken. This is the main reason why IDE-based refactoring tools are less prevalent in Ruby than elsewhere.
IntelliJ IDEA with Ruby plugin supports some refactorings.
alt text http://www.skavish.com/rubyrefactorings.png
I believe net-beans and eclipse both support some refactoring within their 'ruby-mode' - also the emacs code browser (ECB) and the various ruby support tools (e.g. rinari) for emacs have some support.
Aptana has some simple refactoring tools. I often extract into partials and they have a simple shortcut for pulling things out, creating a file and inserting the right call to the partial. Not the most amazing ever but it's useful
I'd be bold and say that Rubymine has the best rails/ruby refactoring in all RoR IDEs. Give it a try and see for your self.
There's also 3rdRail from CodeGear (from Delphi fame). The only catch is that it's not free.
I've used the refactoring in netbeans. I didn't find it that much more useful than find and replace.
You could always give RubyMine a try.
