Github is like a creepy old man, just waiting for an opportunity to mess with you. Github, Github, Github where do I begin? So I was 1 page away from being finished Chapter 6 of Michael Hartl's Rails Tutorial but I had an error while testing. I pair programmed with my brother Cody today for around 3.5 hours. We finished the game finally after much trouble shooting, so happy to have stuck with it and finished, we learned alot more about finding errors.
My brother Cody finds my error, and I'm like sweet I'm good to go, but then the 'TDD' comes back with 30 examples 15 errors. So I know it's wrong somewhere. After much looking and trying to fix code, I decide to go onto Github and clone Michael Hartl's Tutorial source code, I figure I can look through maybe even try running it on a local server just to see how it works.
Well a very long story short, I've screwed up my original app I was working on, because I forgot they were both named 'sample_app' and the fact that if you are already working in 1 app on Sublime Text 2 , it will automatically open the new app in that window, so I ended up messing all sorts of crap up and not realizing what I had done till I was getting weirder and weirder errors. I started thinking "This DARN! thing is POSSESSED!!!" Then I was like "Oh crap". Now I'm kinda' discouraged but I think I'll just start over and copy and paste my way back to Chapter 6, then go through it again VERY carefully and methodically.
HERE'S MY LOG FOR 6 WEEKS TOTAL = 115.5 HOURS.
