5km post-conference swim done at the wonderful Sea Lanes pool in Brighton. It’s not the only reason I come to #BrightonRuby but it’s a lovely bonus.
I was under the cutoff time for the 5km event in August and that included a lane change, slower swimmers, and being told off by the lifeguard 😬
Ahhh #brightonruby was epic! I had the best time!
- I went on stage to talk about theoretical computer science and people didn’t hate it! (or if they did, they haven’t told me 😆)
- I listened to really incredible speakers with amazing talks. The quality was mind blowing 🤯
- laughed so much and …
Went to my first Ruby conference and #brightonruby is really great, predictably great people, can definitely recommend!
Plus an inspired talk on some logic puzzles by @rosa.codes which gave me such fond memories of formal linguistics. Also that I should read the Agda book I have!
Personal Brighton Ruby outcomes.
🌟Energy levels, massively heightened.
🌟Interest in Accessibility, re-ignited.
🌟Book by Raymond Smullyan, ordered.
🌟Number of people I’m following on socials, increased.

#brightonruby is really one of the best ways to experience the awesomeness of the Ruby community.
I mean, how often can you spend an evening chatting about Japanese girls metal bands, devops, kouign amann and management in a single evening?
Really lovely and restorative day and a bit in Brighton for #brightonruby . Thank you @andycroll for putting on a fantastic event and giving me the excuse to come and catch up with some old ruby friends.
Brighton Ruby lanyard with hand written name “Sarah Knight” and stickers of emojis in the “talk to me about” section. Emojis are: Ruby, American Football, Rainbow and the word “she” in blue.
Another lovely and inspiring Brighton Ruby! Interesting talks as always. I also enjoyed the minimalist lanyard approach. Very quick and environmentally friendly! #BrightonRuby

#Accessibility is definitely an underrated topic.
I'm glad that @carmemias is raising awareness at @brightonruby.

Interesting (albeit a bit too fast) overview of the Laraval ecosystem at #brightonruby. I wonder if it will give ideas to @amandabrooke.bsky.social , who’ll be on stage soon.

@valeriecodes.bsky.social giving a nice talk on AI in Ruby. It’s fun to have your own levitating emoji! #brightonruby
But despite my scepticism on AI hype it's otherwise a very interesting and practical intro to vector search using embeddings/LLM. I do want to play with this tech a lot more! #BrightonRuby
The first slide of @valeriecodes's from @rubycentral / #heroku talk is already gold 😅
