I think it is weird - with everything else being connected to LANs like
fridges etc . . why not UPSs?

Scaffolding - disabling Create, Edit, Destroy for some user logins?
People,
I am using:
before_filter :login_required
in my Controllers and this works fine. For some tables I am happy to
use the output of eg:
ruby script/generate scaffold Author
but is there some way that I can disable Create, Edit, Destroy for some
user logins in the corresponding view?
Thanks,
Phil.

What is this relationship?
People,
If I have a table "books" and a table "comments" and if there is either
ZERO or ONE comment per book then:
- "Comment" belongs_to "Book"
but what is the relationship of "Book" to "Comment"?
Thanks,
Phil.

School Years/Teams listing problem
People,
I have tables years and teams and I have the years listing like:
1965
1966
1967
.
.
I want to be able to click on the year and ONLY list teams for that
year. At first I thought the following was working until I started
populating the table with teams for more than one year.
For views/years/list.rhtml:
<% for year in @years %>

categories/recipes & books/descriptions - has_many vs has_one => id question
People,
In the cookbook eg, categories has_many recipes but in a book eg, book
has_one description - doesn''t that mean that the id of the description
should be the same as the id of the book (instead of having it''s own
"description_id" in the book table?
Thanks,
Phil.

Design question: Years/Teams/Students
People,
I want to design a historical sports db for my old school. I think at
the moment it should be like:
A year has many teams
A team has many students
A student has one lastname, firstname and middlename
but a student can also have many teams (eg summer/winter abd over a
number of years) . .
Is there a problem with this? Doesn''t it just mean that there will be a
student table

Why are LAN ports not standard on UPSs these days?
Hi Phil,
I don't have an answer to your question about the lack of LAN ports, but
can offer my experience with NUT for a home server environment. I've
tended to prefer the Tripp-Lite UPS systems, mainly because I originally
felt they did a good job of power filtering. I use a NUT master running on
a Raspberry Pi 3 which is easy to maintain and gets current updates via its
Debian roots.

Pluralization of non-noun names
People,
I have an insurance company client and for the last eleven years I have
wanted to completely redevelop their system from scratch. However, the
boss has never been interested in hiring a team to develop the new
system (partly because of the cost and partly because of some famous and
expensive development failures in the industry) and has always insisted
on incremental development of the

Multiple (7) Y axes?
People,
I want to create seven plots on the one graph - each with it's own Y
axis and scale - I want the plots overlaid because it is the shape of
the graphs that I want to compare, not so much the values. I have found
examples where people show how to put two Y axes on the left of the plot
but I couldn't find examples of any more than that - is it possible?
Thanks,
Phil.

recipes/categories to books/authors but listing doesn''t work
People,
I have gone through the cookbook example:
http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/onlamp/2005/01/20/rails.html?page=1
and everything worked fine an a FC4/Postgres setup.
I then tried to reproduce this success with something that would be
useful to me - a library db using books & authors tables. The author
list works but NOT the book list (unless I take line #17 out).
I get this message:

Using DIV tags in HTML - a better Ruby/Rails way?
People,
I can use a DIV tag for exact positioning of fields on a form:
Creating a DIV tag creates a layer.
The DIV tag contains a style attribute with positioning information. It
might also have border and size information, if appropriate.
Here is the basic DIV tag required for exact positioning:
<div
style="
top: 99;
left: 99;
position: absolute;
