Is there a gem or another easy way to get time difference compare to present time like Twitter?
Of course I can write it myself, but I don't want to reinvent the wheel.

If you are using rails, you could do
distance_of_time_in_words_to_now #user.created_at
#=> "15 days"
or
time_ago_in_words #post.created_at
#=> "about 13 hours"

I'm trying to require modules in my app without using require ./module or require_relative.
I know that in python you can do:
import sys
sys.path.append("whatever")
Then, you can import every module in the "whatever" path.
I guess it is possible to do it in ruby as well, but couldn't figure out a better way than:
ENV["PATH"] += ':whatever'
What about
$LOAD_PATH.unshift('whatever')
$LOAD_PATH.append('whatever')

How to min inside the formula to evaluate using eval().
[5,6].min works fine but it doesn't work inside the formula eval([5,6].min*5).
Here is a way using #eval. But why you need #eval ?
eval('[5,6].min * 5')
# => 25
Simply [5,6].min * 5 will work for you.
You don't need eval.
[5,6].min*5.

I have an api, which has java DateTime type, which returns the following hash:
{"Date":1403592945000}
The actual date value is: "2014-06-24 06:55:45". How do I convert it in Ruby?
Time.at is the function you want to use. However, it seems that your value also contains milliseconds, that in Ruby should passed apart.
Time.at(1403592945000) # wrong
Time.at(1403592945) # => 2014-06-24 08:55:45 +0200
This will work:
Time.at(hash['Date']/1000)

I'm trying to split a string in 2 parts: the first word and the last one.
I know I need to use the .split method but don't know how.
Is this what you want to do?
first, *_, last = "now is the time for all".split
first #=> "now"
last #=> "all"
