I have the pleasure to welcome Dima Fatko 🇺🇦 in the Rails committers team. Dima has been relentlessly fixing reported issues in record time for quite a while now, this is more than deserved! Congrats Dima! 👏

Welcome Dima Fatko 🇺🇦 to the Rails Committers team!

Dima Fatko 🇺🇦's recent PR improved PostgreSQL index retrieval in Rails, reducing query time from 2,500 to 500ms ⚡️ Great work! 👏 Tools like active_record_doctor now run 3x faster 🔥 PR: github.com/rails/rails/pu… More perf gems in your feed if you follow me! 💎 #rubyonrails #ruby

I found a bit of time there and there to write part 3 over the last week, hopefully it isn't too disjointed. byroot.github.io/ruby/json/2024…

🔥🔥🔥 Puma internals article dansvetlov.me/puma-internals/

Instead of one style of writing blocks, there are now 2. While reading the code, instead of descriptive names, you now need to remember what this meaningless 'it' refers to each time. While this might work for trivial cases, it will be abused for chained calls and be a hell.

Sometimes a picture says all…

It is scary when idiots like musk have so much power and influence. In ideal world, such people must be isolated from society. Or, more likely, he writes such statements purposefully. Sorry, I hate tweeting about politics, but having this idiot on our planet is too much.

This is probably more costly than changing programming languages, because of existing users, but are there examples where people migrated from GraphQL back to REST API? Or wish to do the migration? What is your experience with GraphQL so far as an implementer and/or a user?

A nice optimization was merged, which makes Rails batching over whole (or almost whole) tables even faster. 🎉 github.com/rails/rails/pu…

Very happy about this change to rubocop github.com/rubocop/ruboco… Very often I see people use the `&.` operator without giving much thought. That change does a deeper analysis of the code and will help to reduce unneeded `&.`, making code nicer. I found 250 such cases in my app.

Just yesterday it helped me again to identify exact places of performance problems in a long running job 🫰. APM and other tools were useless. Found exact places of N+1s, lines that load too many records, most popular SQL queries, redundant queries, etc. Highly recommend!

The next Rails version will have an optimization to enqueue many emails at once github.com/rails/rails/pu… (if the active job adapter supports bulk enqueuing, like sidekiq). Very useful for batch operations and can greatly reduce the number of round-trips to the queue datastore.

We had the same problem, so I created a new gem that allows to add deadlines to ignored columns, and this won't happen again - github.com/fatkodima/smar…
