He's always causing a ruckus or being lazy. Nothing in-between! 🐈

Is there any benefit to using the constant for the base URL instead of just using a method and overwriting it in each inherited client? Looking forward to the generator episode! I've been playing around with Rails generators recently to build out my own Rails template so I can stop copying/pasting code every time I start a new project.

A constant is faster to lookup since it's saved, but a method that returns the string would work fine too.

Also we just published the generators episode!
