Useful Methods Ben Lewis wrote an article about Five Ruby Methods you should be using. He covers Object#tap, Array#bsearch, Enumerable#flat_map, Array.new with a block, and the sort operator (a.k.a. spaceship).

Metrics That Matter Chris Kottom published an article covering a few of the code metrics that he feels don’t necessarily matter, like 100% code coverage. He focuses on a few that do, including performance, complexity, and security.

sprockets-traceur The sprockets-traceur gem by Adam Pohorecki allows us to use the new features from ECMAScript 6 in Rails apps today, before the next version of JavaScript is officially released. Since a lot of Rails apps tend to make heavy use of JavaScript, it's good to be able to try out some of these features sooner than later.

Toxiproxy The team at Shopify recently released a new library for tampering with network connections called Toxiproxy. It provides a TCP proxy system which can be used to simulate network and system conditions.

email_prefixer The email_prefixer gem by Ryan Sonnek automatically adds a prefix to the subject line of all delivered emails in development and staging. Great use of ActionMailer::Interceptor, a feature added in Rails 3.1.

Phone verification using SMS via Twilio Santosh Wadghule published a guide on how to perform phone number verification in your Ruby application using the Twilio API. Who needs CAPTCHA? I’m just gonna TEXTYA!
