Feed Description: JVoorhis is a Rubyist in northeast Ohio. He rambles about Ruby on Rails, development practices, other frameworks such as Django, and on other days he is just full of snark.
As Robby mentioned earlier today, we returned late last night from a rather short-notice consulting gig. I went the from the frisco shore, putting my feet in the Pacific Ocean for the first time (yes, it was cold) to sitting in a pizza parlor in PDX with an Obsidian 4 short hours later. For your enjoyment, we will post some of our antics and escapades later on the Planet Argon Flickr photostream.
As per Robby’s post, we cannot talk much about the client yet, but they are currently using Rails to manage the manufacturing of their product and shipping throughout the country. We are talking about accepting input via barcode scanners, and controlling some pretty large machines on the other end.
Yep, that’s right. Despite any controversy you may have read or perpetuated, enterprise Ruby / Rails has crept up on us, silently.
