... and here I thought a health related topic got to #2 on Hacker News based on the merit of maintaning a healthy lifestyle in addition to being a successful worker.

FWIW, if anyone has yet to discover the joy of swimming (and the potential impact it will have on your abs), I recommend you try it.


I will exercise the day I can check my body into a version control system. Until that day exercise is a waste of time since you must do it over and over again.


We do image A/B testing in less than 5, with just javascript:

If you do use their a/b testing framework, you should consider logging data to mixpanel.com just because we do all the pretty graphs for you too =)


My plugin lets you split test at the action level so that you can create separate actions with separate variables, filters, etc: http://github.com/flyingmachine/rails_ab_split_tester/tree/m...

I only made it so that it would work with Google Analytics but it wouldn't be that difficult to modify it to work with whatever you want.


No weighting? I guess I should fork it.


plz do, that is exactly the kinda of community i'm looking to create with a simple example


hmmm I wonder if we could hook in our platform mixpanel.com into your framework so there's a more robust solution to viewing the stats afterwords...

our ruby support is a bit weak.


dm me on github and i'll send you my email if you have any questions.
