Oh yes definitely! I was copying it from multiple notes app and got messed up haha, thanks for pointing out!

What's your opinion on Concerns? I've heard a lot of people saying concerns are bad, but I've also seen DHH being a big advocate for it.

I like them (in Rails) even though they add such little functionality. It's more about the concept of moving code from your models and controllers into separate files that contain a functionality in its entirety. Make those models small again :)

I see! Definitely agree on slimming down. My company's go-to for slimming down model is always Service Objects, so that's what I've been used to.

I think one of these days I should definitely try out concerns! Thanks for sharing :)

Serivce Objects and PORO is a must when you write a rake tasks. Processing the input and passing it to the service is all my rake tasks do. Much easier to test.
