<FromGitter> <damianham> Hi guys - back online after a nice long break in Colombia. I went to a ruby meetup on Tuesday and I suggested I do a talk on Amber at the next meetup which was greeted with enthusiasm by the organisers. They have already had a talk on Crystal. Does anyone have any ready made material for an Amber presentation ? If not it would be a good idea to develop some materials so we can all help to advocate Crystal/Amber.
<FromGitter> <valenciaj> Hi there, I have a legacy DB, and one table has a column named 99percent, and can't compile when I define `field 99percent : Int32`
<FromGitter> <valenciaj> Can't enclose in single or double quotes too

<FromGitter> <Blacksmoke16> I don't think you can have a property starting with a number in Crystal
<FromGitter> <Blacksmoke16> so thats more a limitation with crystal and how granite is implemented :/
<FromGitter> <Blacksmoke16> @valenciaj
<FromGitter> <valenciaj> @Blacksmoke16 :/
<robacarp> @blacksmoke16 don't we have a data-mapper style way to map this field to that database column?
<robacarp> or is that in my dreams
<FromGitter> <drujensen> @damianham I haven’t done a talk in a while but I usually go over crystal first. Here is an old presentation. https://github.com/drujensen/fib/blob/master/crystal-language.pdf
<FromGitter> <drujensen> Then I do the 5 minute blog site demo using Amber
<FromGitter> <Blacksmoke16> if we do its news to me
<FromGitter> <drujensen> I dont’ have a presentation for Amber but if you create one, we can add it to our assets repo. :-)
<FromGitter> <kevinelliott> Looks like the amber cli options help text needs to remove `—deps`
<FromGitter> <kevinelliott> Submitted PR. https://github.com/amberframework/amber/pull/1057
