Hot take πΆοΈ
The more I deal with SQLite the more I'm astounded it became such a tech darling given its many surprising quirks.
MySQL has been flamed to death for this sort of stuff, and still has poor reputation a decade after most of them have been fixed.

Trix has been extracted to a new gem: action_text-trix. This is handy because you can update the JS and CSS independently from Rails now.

Published tiny dev tool named `gem-clone`: github.com/hsbt/gem-clone
You can clone the source code of rubygems like `rails` with `gem clone rails`. It helps your inspection and development.
San Francisco Ruby Conference on November 19-20: sfruby.com!
And you got to stay for Friday, 21, for unofficial events π
Is there a single "dev tools"/infra product that does usage based pricing that doesn't feel like they're absolutely rinsing you? lol
hard not to feel like this is just a massive wealth transfer from pension funds -> VCs -> to datadog and co at this point.
I'm writing a newsletter about why you should probably be running bigger pods for your webservice than you currently are today. Based on my outline, what questions do you have or what about pod sizing is confusing to you today?
Congrats!

Sweating the April 30 deadline to migrate your Ruby app off of Heroku-20? I wrote a few words that might help blog.heroku.com/migrating-ru...
Super excited to get this out of the door! There's still a lot of work to do to match the amount of data we had on RubyConferences.org, but to me it's very clear that this is the way forward for RubyEvents!
What is the best conference talk you've ever seen?
In-person I keep remembering:
www.youtube.com/watch?v=f7XN...
- it was amazing to witness.
Also any Jim Weirich live coding ones, those were wild haha, and many more!
It's such a great time to be a Ruby and Rails developer. Exciting times ahead!

The new @github.com PR merge button is so enticing. I accidentally would have merged a few of them in the last few days just because it seems so shiny, checks UI so green, and inherently just makes you press that Merge button πΆ
Is too good of an UI an anti-pattern lol?
Same here, see you there!
Howdy. Itβs me. I added a link to this bsky account from my GitHub for verification github.com/schneems
Wrote another book: "Using Kamal 2.0 in Production"; seeking tech reviewers. Let me know if you are interested. PragProg has agreed to publish it. (1/3)
