identified that the traffic was generated by a third party in an effort to slow down the site. The website first went down at 6:31 AM PT. NoRedInk engineers immediately began work to bring it back up. At 9:18 AM, the team finished a fix to mitigate the issue and the website was fully functional. We recognize that the downtime may have interrupted clas* time, and we apologize for any inconvenience this caused. We have taken steps to ensure a service outage like this does not occur in the future. One of the joys of writing Elm apps is the many ways the compiler catches our mistakes, and the useful error messages it gives us when it does. It’s a two-way street though, meaning that the degree to which the compiler can weed out mistakes depends on what information we disclose to it. In other words, we have to help the compiler help ourselves. In this post we’ll see that this is truer for the view function than anywhere else, and we’ll see how we can help the compiler help us get our view functions right. Fix an awkward relationship. That was the name of the story that I took on as the NoRedInk Writing team embarked on creating our new Peer Review writing product. As we perfected how a teacher can as*ign and move their students through a cycle of writing steps, it became increasingly obvious that the functionality which we needed to add was not elegantly handled by our current data model. At the end of the This is a common problem many people working on large, evolving codebases face. What do we do when we need to add a new table but want to use many of the same relationships and components of another table? How do we elegantly handle jumping back and forth between tables that have similar relationships to the same table? The following is a breakdown of my discovery and implementation of polymorphic relationships. It’s not always the right decision, but when it is, it can make working within your tables simpler, prettier, and more. ARTISANS AT IKEA: WHY WE BUILT (AND THREW AWAY) OUR HIGHEST FIDELITY PROTOTYPE.
