Basically you can imagine it as a database of videos and MongoDB was holding the metadata and other bits but the actual video files were on disk somewhere. My parsing involved loading&#8230;]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.eimermusic.com/code/looping-through-large-and-slow-datasets-in-ruby/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Quick Tip: iOS and web graphics in Illustrator</title><link>http://www.eimermusic.com/the-pensive/quick-tip-ios-and-web-graphics-in-illustrator/</link> <comments>http://www.eimermusic.com/the-pensive/quick-tip-ios-and-web-graphics-in-illustrator/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Thu, 03 Nov 2011 09:01:26 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>martin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[The Pensive]]></category> <category><![CDATA[design]]></category> <category><![CDATA[iphone]]></category><guid

It is very simple, obvious and keeps me sane while drawing UI elements. Make sure &#8220;Align to Pixel Grid&#8221; is actually selected! That gets you out of so much trouble.

These things have made me think more than usual about the patent system.

I think some sites don&#8217;t change passwords security for fear of annoying users or the workload involved in&#8230;]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.eimermusic.com/code/transitioning-to-more-secure-passwords/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Am I Fierce?</title><link>http://www.eimermusic.com/general-interest/am-i-fierce/</link> <comments>http://www.eimermusic.com/general-interest/am-i-fierce/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Wed, 18 May 2011 18:45:42 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>martin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[General Interest]]></category><guid

To change an index one has to first remove it and then add it again. Removing an index is the tricky part. The documentation states: remove_index(table_name, index_name): Removes the index specified by index_name. This is not strictly true as it turns out. The docs should probably&#8230;]]></description> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.eimermusic.com/code/rails-migration-of-indexes/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>0</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Offensively lazy web developers</title><link>http://www.eimermusic.com/code/offensively-lazy-web-developers/</link> <comments>http://www.eimermusic.com/code/offensively-lazy-web-developers/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Sat, 30 Oct 2010 18:55:45 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>martin</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Code]]></category> <category><![CDATA[General Interest]]></category><guid

This abomination of a protocol they even have the nerve to call &#8220;web services&#8221; is not my favorite type of API to interface with (how did you guess?). I think probably the only language with any decent support is Java and possibly .net.
