Dual booting Arch linux & Windows 10

There are already dozens of tutorials to setup an Arch and Windows dual boot - welcome to a dozen + 1. Like most others this is a step by step guide. Unlike most others the steps are ordered in a way that makes sense (starting with the download first - duh!) so you won't have to restart your computer a gazillion times.

I did this on a single SSD Dell XPS 15 with windows 10 preinstalled. It's obviously possible to follow this guide if you're installing Arch onto a different drive or if you're running older hardware. If you run into any problems please be sure to read through the Arch Installation Guide and the Arch Dual boot with Windows wiki.

To get started you will need:

a stable internet connection
a USB key with 1GB storage
a cup of coffee & and a can do attitude

Run rails new --help to see all of the options you can use to create a new Rails application:

Output for Rails 8+

Usage:
  rails COMMAND [options]

You must specify a command:

brew cask install dia

After his it won't run because DISPLAY=:0 env var is not set

vim /Applications/Dia.app/Contents/Resources/bin/dia

	# When an RSpec test like this fails,
	#
	# @my_array.should == [@some_model, @some_model2]
	#
	# RSpec will call inspect on each of the objects to "help" you figure out
	# what went wrong. Well, inspect will usually dump a TON OF SHIT and make trying
	# to figure out why `@my_array` is not made up of `@some_model` and `@some_model2`.
	#
	# This little module and technique helps get around that. It will redefine `inspect`
	# if you include it in your model object.
