Rails Environment Variables Using Credentials
I've been a long time fan of Figaro, a great gem that lets your store your environment variables in /config/application.yml. I've used it in most of my Rails apps for two reasons. One, it lets you easily define variables for your for development, staging, production environments. Two, it works well with Heroku since they also use ENV for storing and accessing environment variables, so things work the same locally while developing as well as after it's been deployed. However the downside with Figaro is that all your environment variables are exposed to the outside world, which is problematic if your repo is open source.

Setting Up OmniAuth Authentication in Development
In this post, I will go over the steps I took to authenticate to GitHub in a Rails development environment using the omniauth-github gem, "the official OmniAuth strategy for authenticating to GitHub", along with Devise, the figaro gem, and ngrok, a nifty tool that exposes your local WebHost to the internet. This guide will assume you already have Devise authentication setup for your app. See the link above for installation instructions.

10 Signs of a good Ruby on Rails Developer
You should not commit such credentials/secrets/environment variables to the Github instead you keep them secure with gems like dotenv-rails, figaro or simple dot files that are not committed to the repository.

“Clean” Code, Horrible Performance
For the longest time Rails was also incredibly slow at generating JSON, of all things. JBuilder [1] was a few orders of magnitude slower than using .to_json directly or other libraries.
[1] https://github.com/rails/jbuilder, maintained by DHH and the Rails team. AFAIR, the "official" JSON serialization DSL.

pbbuilder gem
It's a builder DSL for protobuf messages, similar to jbuilder. If you ever used jbuilder, this would be really familiar, but there are small nuances of protobuf to be aware off :)
