underused Array method: bsearch. If you're `find`ing on a sorted array... you could probably bsearch and it'll be faster. Of course Jemma Issroff already wrote up a great guide: jemma.dev/blog/array-bse…

Registration to RubyConf Mini is now LIVE! 🥳🎉 We're so excited to see you all in Providence, RI! eventbrite.com/e/rubyconf-min…

It's a great day to have a great day! Also a great day to register for RubyConf Mini, and join us in Providence mid Nov to meet other Rubyists IRL, watch talks on a wide variety of topics (and meet the speakers / keynoters), and engage with our sponsors rubyconfmini.com/register

Who should I be chasing to find sponsors for RubyConf mini? Are you looking to find (or sell to) excellent Rubyists of exquisite taste? Sponsoring mini would seem like a no-brainer to me. Emails are open: [email protected]

If you were at Euruko please test for covid. I've heard of several cases so far. Please also tell anyone who might not see this. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, and hope those who are positive feel better soon!

Someone asked if RubyConf Mini was still accepting talk proposals. I don't actually know of any way to check which Ruby conferences currently have open CFPs. Does anyone know of a resource that would say which CFPs are currently open?

Today @[email protected] merged a PR that changes Classes and Modules to use object shapes for storing instance variables rather than a hash table. Class IVAR reads are 2x faster, and it saved 16MB RAM! 👏 github.com/ruby/ruby/pull…

Now that I am waiting to board my flight to Houston, I can't help think about the great experience everyone had at #RubyConfMini a little over a week ago. It was one of the best conference experiences I've had and here is why: 🧵

I'm heartbroken to share this news about our dear friend and colleague, Chris Seaton.
