Programming is hard
June 11th, 2006
Programming is great fun (mainly with Ruby 
. However, this statement does not contradict with the fact that sometimes programming can be also hard. I came across a nice site today which can offer some help in these moments: Programming is hard. Judging from the size of Ruby/Rails/ActiveRecord tags (there is even a script.aculo.us tag!) it seems that it has a nice dose of Ruby/Rails stuff - solutions for common problems and also links to tutorials, frequenty asked nuby questions etc. Be sure to check it out!

Strange, it seems to be a duplicate of this site:
http://www.bigbold.com/snippets/
Except with a different name and content. Is it developed by the same guy? Why have two different sites with the same purpose and design?

Hmmm, i have no idea. I did not know about the other one, just came across “programming is hard”.
Strange…

Didn’t seem to be working when I checked but I’ll come back again to it.

Doug, as Ryan pointed out you can check out
http://www.bigbold.com/snippets/
It really seems it has the same content/design, to the point that it looks like a mirror…
It’s strange that programmingishard.com is down, though…

I’m the developer of Snippets and the maintainer of the ‘main’ repository at bigbold.com/snippets/
I know the guy who launched programmingishard.com and he even offered to forward it to the main Snippets site
However, Snippets’ source has been available to certain people and that’s just how a default Snippets install looks
There’s another version at www.textsnippets.com, for example.
