5 entertaining things you can find with the GitHub Search API

Let's have some command-line fun with curl, [jq][1], and the [new GitHub Search API][2].

Today we're looking for:

• The hottest repositories created in the last week.
• The oldest user accounts with zero followers. (So sad.)
• Issue trends by language.
• Clojure projects defying convention.

"Why You Don't Get Mock Objects" by Gregory Moeck

RubyConf 2011 | 2011-09-29 | Gregory Moeck (@gregmoeck) | Slides

• Recommended as the best book on mocks: Growing Object-Oriented Software, Guided by Tests by Steve Freeman & Nat Pryce
• Common arguments against mocks
  • They duplicate implementation
  • They lead to brittle tests
• Mock objects + procedural programming = bad idea
• If you're doing traditional Rails development (which tends to follow more of a "procedural", do-this-and-then-do-that style), mock objects probably aren't for you

Functional TDD: A Clash of Cultures - Kent Beck

https://www.facebook.com/notes/kent-beck/functional-tdd-a-clash-of-cultures/472392329460303

I have been taking Bryan O'Sullivan's excellent Haskell course and noticed something during the homework: TDD wasn't working for me, at least not as I apply it in object languages. This has forced me to take a step back and rethink what is really essential about TDD and what is an artifact of the languages I have been using.

A warning: I'm only on week two of the course. I did quite a bit of functional programming in the Dinosaur Computing Era, so the style is familiar, but everything contained herein is subject to change. I'm mostly just thinking aloud (and hoping for contributed wisdom.)

When I use TDD with an object language like Smalltalk, Java, or PHP I typically start programming with a trivial case--a List with no elements, for example. Working through it encourages me (sounds better than "forces") to think about the metaphors I am using and style of the API
