ruby on rails - How to approach aggregating actvities in feeds and then handling comments -


i'm working on developing activity stream running club i'm working with. runners able see fun , things , friends have been on past few weeks.

obie fernandez gave great talk on how approach using redis @ railsconf 2012 (the videos on youtube here) , i've adapted work within our app.

having run few days, it's clear next challenge build aggregated items list now. take example following feed:

the feed it's implemented

here it's clear top story better collapse "shaun, alexander , ivo completed group run...", poses interesting question when thinking comments. comment associated individuals action of going on run. comment on ivo's attendance on run directed @ him. in collapsing story, i'm not entirely sure how handle commenting. comment gets distributed amongst people you're friends went on run, can see becoming messy when people have different sets of friends. comments instead link directly run itself, lose value of being able reference particular user's attendance.

i'd love hear people's thoughts on this, , pointers design patterns out there handling this.

i'd think feed_item (for display purposes) having_many feedables in polymorphic relationship. is, many things have created feed_item (a run, bike ride, connecting new friend feedables , generate feed_item)

the run above 3 runs associated 1 feed_item, , feed_item have many comments, not feedable (run or whatever).

this isolates record of our group run record of our group run, when leave service, run persists because feed_item still there, lost feedable run.

batching them , associating take fuzzy logic that's different issue, helps out commenting , cannonical source being feed_item separate feedables (runs, bikes, etc)

linux - Does gcc have any options to add version info in ELF binary file? -

i mean whether gcc can insert source code version infor elf binary section or similar. not want change source file, add info gcc option in makefile. you can emit version info text file, turn text file object file statically link executable. the first step simple have write code: script or write version info in format plain text file. write makefile rule produce version.o version.txt, using objcopy . you'll have object file 2 useful symbols defined in it: beginning , end of textual version info. add generated object executable, , you'll able access version 2 ways: running strings on binary, or writing code in application print version string (you'll need declare start , end symbols variables in header file).

javascript - Clean way to programmatically use CSS transitions from JS? -

as title implies, there proper way set initial css properties (or class) , tell browser transition these value? for example ( fiddle ): var el = document.queryselector('div'), st = el.style; st.opacity = 0; st.transition = 'opacity 2s'; st.opacity = 1; this not animate opacity of element in chrome 29/firefox 23. because ( source ): [...] you’ll find if apply both sets of properties, 1 after other, browser tries optimize property changes, ignoring initial properties , preventing transition. behind scenes, browsers batch property changes before painting which, while speeding rendering, can have adverse affects. the solution force redraw between applying 2 sets of properties. simple method of doing accessing dom element’s offsetheight property [...] in fact, hack work in current chrome/firefox versions. updated code ( fiddle - click run after opening fiddle run animation again): var el = document.queryselector('div'...
