Posted in How to test ActionMailer in Rails Discussion

Hey! Really enjoyed reading this, especially the part about focusing on high-level functionality. It totally resonated with me. Sometimes I get bogged down in the details, like trying to perfect every single pixel. It reminds me of playing doodle baseball, haha. You know, you're aiming for that perfect hit, but even if you miss, you learn something about timing and adjusting for the next swing. Similarly, I think the key is to keep practicing and refining my approach, not getting stuck on the small stuff. Thanks for the helpful perspective!

I especially appreciate your point about the overhead of re-executing DB queries for simple updates. It's like playing doodle baseball, sometimes you swing with all your might (full page refresh), but all you needed was a well-timed tap (Turbo Stream)! Your solution for attribute updates with custom actions and wrapping is ingenious. It definitely highlights the trade-offs between "pure" MVC and practical efficiency. Thanks for sharing your code – it's given me a lot to think about for my own projects. Keep up the great work, Collin!
