I added the code below (which is

there’s any unintended consequences I should be looking out for?
None that I can think of.
Good to hear!
If not, would it make sense to include this in the Runt gem?
Yes, definitely. Can you please send me either a failing test case
demonstrating the issue or give me some more details about
‘event.created_at’ (‘event.created_at’ returns a Time instance, true?).
Either way I will be happy to add it.
event is an ActiveRecord object and created_at is a Time instance,
thus trying to see if falls within a TemporalExpression doesn’t work
as Time doesn’t have a date_precision method.
Not sure this is exactly what you need but hopefully it gets the point
across. If you run the code below as-is, it will raise:
NoMethodError: undefined method ‘date_precision’ for Mon Nov 06
07:38:00 GMT 2006:Time
However if the code modifying Time is uncommented then passing Time
objects to still_there? appear to work fine.
Hope it all makes sense,
Paul.
