Matt, M.S.

Seems as though TextMate eats your blog posts if you attempt to re-publish a post. It seems to take the posting id of the previous post; each time publishing taking the id of the previous post to the current one.

So it seems as though I can do something like this in Ruby:

That kind of mimics what I’m doing in CakePHP with multidimensional arrays.

**The Powers That Be** at my office are sending yours truly to the PHP Works 2007 conference in Atlanta this year! I’m especially excited to hear the opening keynote on the PHP6. (Ironic that my last few posts have been on Ruby!).

Alright, just a full day of playing with Rails and I’m seriously considering porting my entire CakePHP application over. I’ve read the first hundred pages of the Rails Cookbook and I’m quickly understanding that CakePHP only scratches the surface of Rails. Of note, I ported the same application over from my homemade framework to CakePHP one day after playing with it.

I’ve recently discovered the gloriousness of CakePHP, and my development time has been cut by 80% on the PHP projects I’m working on at the office. I know that it’s just a knock-off of Rails, but I’m a PHP guy. Anyway, I decide to look at Rails for the first time since I realized that frameworks are a good thing.
