Let’s see how Solid Cable on SQLite holds up. I spent this week building realtime polls. I embedded the first one in my last article (unfortunately after the publish date). joyofrails.com/articles/what-…

It’s such a simple thing, but I love that Ruby treats the backslash character as a line continuation, similar to a shell. I often use it to omit parens and group keyword arguments on new line.

I love Ruby so much that I write my HTML in Ruby. I’ve got nothing against ERb, but after a year of writing Phlex components, I’m not looking back.

Made some nice improvements to the Lighthouse score for the Joy of Rails homepage today. Biggest different was optimizing the article illustrations.

The new Ruby docs are looking great. The search feature is fast. New experimental features appear to be in the works too, like type signatures and runnable code examples. Awesome stuff!

Great to see Adrien Poly and Marco Roth with Ruby Video trending on trending on HN today after the Ruby Concurrency talk by jpcamara hit the top spot yesterday. Ruby’s having a good run right now and it’s not even Christmas yet!

And today, Nadia Odunayo is #1 on HN for her Brighton Ruby The StoryGraph talk. Congrats, Nadia for your software, business, and speaking accomplishments!

Rails really is the One-Person Framework

Currently working on an in-browser demo to help visualize the difference between eager and lazy enumeration in Ruby

All Hans really wanted was to be sitting on a beach, earning 20%

Noah was brilliant and kind, a talented programmer, an even better person. He left an indelible mark on the Ruby community. I feel privileged to have met Noah and I will miss him dearly. My heart goes out to his family.

A few seasons in and my main observation is pretty much everyone in The Sopranos is a horrible person.

Welp the day has come that the company I worked for got sunset so I am on the hunt for a new job. If anyone happens to know of any great Rails shops(that use turbo 🤞) feel free to reach out! DMs are open. RTs for reach appreciated.

I made a thing to help you visualize how Ruby’s Lazy Enumerator works, so your code can do less work. joyofrails.com/articles/simpl…

In case you missed it, here’s my recent article where you get to play with an interactive demo to visualize how Ruby’s Enumerator::Lazy helps avoid unnecessary work

What a game. Whatever happens in the second half, it has been awesome to see my hometown Washington Commanders good at football again. #Commanders #Lions

One thing I loved about DarkSky is to get an idea of what the weather is usually like in some location at a given time of year. What’s a good app for that these days?
