Wrote about #ruby Ractors and how they work + why they exist.
This is the next post in the Ruby concurrency/performance series. I'm sending these as part of my newsletter.
A beginner friendly primer (defining process, thread, concurrency, parallelism, Ruby GVL) theleafnode.com/ruby-web-ser...
It's been a while since I shared, so:
I write a #ruby, #rails newsletter. Subscribe and tell your friends (if you feel like it:):
Excited about Lexxy, the new editor for Action Text. Check it out github.com/basecamp/lexxy
I'm not at #RailsWorld but following along.
Keep sharing your pictures and updates, love it ❤️
Thanks for the book recommendation! Right up my alley, added to my Libby app 😊
Thanks Jeremy! 😀
Note to self: check bluesky more often.
This year I've been increasingly imagining AI tools as the 'end-user' as I update the remaining Rails guides.
Had no inkling of this reality when we started in January 2024 though.

Check it out for an excellent rabbit hole on time and calendars (and world book day), including ruby-docs examples 😀

All of the rails commands (and their aliases):
aliases = {
"g" => "generate",
"d" => "destroy",
"c" => "console",
"s" => "server",
"db" => "dbconsole",
"r" => "runner",
"t" => "test"

Hi 👋 I'm going to start using this place more.
If we know each other from the other place, please react to this post, so I can follow you.

Absolutely agree with this:
"an opportunity and great challenge to dive deeper into topics and communicate ideas more clearly and effectively."
I feel ready to continue the technical writing I started in 2024 also.
I read what you wrote, thanks for sharing 😊
Nice, Happy Birthday!

"how far away in the experience ladder they are" 👈 this is a great way of putting it.
Interesting! Currently doing research on history of homeschooling and other alternate approaches to education (for a personal writing project). I am very curious about this topic (as a parent).
hi 👋
Just finished The Hidden Tools of Comedy (would recommend, if interested in writing).
And now I've added this book to my Libby queue :)
Hi 👋
