Arid, Extra DRY
ruxpin: how can I set the schema_migrations table name?
ruxpin: I have two rails applications using the same database
rsl: and yr using migrations in both?
ruxpin: yes
rsl: quel desastre!
ruxpin: why?
ruxpin: atm all of the migrations are in the main app
rsl: i'd personally keep them all in one app and have the other a "slave" as far as migrations.
ruxpin: but it gets quite problematic when you don't want the 2nd app on some servers
rsl: like i said... quel desastre!
rsl: but it sure is DRY.

barghat: is it possible to search the bugs on lighthouse without a lighthouse account?
barghat: (quite includistic != open source i think)
barghat: same with google groups
rsl: barghat: i think yr mistaken on what open source means.
barghat: rsl i know the definition. but thats not the 'mentality'
barghat: you force me to get a google/lighthouse account, or stay away
rsl: 1. lighthouse isn't open source. 2. open source != no login. 3. i can't imagine there's really no way to do this. 4. if yr not willing to sign up to lighthouse to contribute back to rails, it's kinda a moot point.
rsl: 5. leethal will eat you.
leethal: mouf
barghat: yeah. i want to contribute to rails. but i don't want to support a commercial company i don't like with this
rsl: barghat: dude... you can sign up to lighthouse as a user for free.
blj: barghat: stop complaining and do it, it is free
barghat: stupid fuckers
rsl: i hope you just didn't know that.
barghat: 'free' is not enough
rsl: jesus fucking christ.
barghat left the chat room. ("leaving")

It’s always fun when the new users of Rails remind us how wrong we are and how broken what we successfully use is. Never gets old.
