RSS should be fixed for the main Feedburner feed now. PayPal orders have been fixed, too, and I've added a "waitlist" indicator on featured tutorial orders.

Actually, I take that back; it looks like I'm booked until then for the Photoshop topic. I'll add in a "next available date" during that process so it's more clear.

I'll look into the feed reader error, too. And I'll likely just bump your Photoshop orders to the front page since it wasn't clear up-front. Sorry about that.

Nope; I noticed that just now... I'll be fixing it shortly.

@eyeson - that's currently the ad left of the 728 skyscraper above. Right now it's a black image to Tutorial9 ("Master Photoshop and Definite Yourself").

@Chris... it was a bit of a work weekend for me. Had somewhere like 30-40 commits to my repository in the last 24 hours or so, so hopefully that means that things should be pretty smooth all around today [crosses fingers].

Original Post: Slow requests

I blame the market. Notice how it was slow on Monday and speedier today; it's a reflection of the status of the Dow.

Really though, we're getting really pretty close to releasing the next version, which'll have all sorts of whiz-bang speedups and optimizations.

Original Tutorial: Ruby PHP Equivilents

While these are valid examples, they seem a little bit PHP-y, from my point of view. As you get more into Ruby, you tend to place a lot of value on typical Ruby idioms of development. For example, a lot of these could use Ruby's String class, which seems (to me, at least) to be a more appropriate way of accomplishing these tasks. Using .include?('string') instead of the array-based approach, for example, or one of the many ways to use regexes on a String.

You really should start submitting thumbnails. That's what they're there for.

Yes. Within a few days.

For those wanting to be in the know, you might want to start following @holman on twitter fairly soon.
