Who's adding another Ruby conference to their 2026 calendar?
Rocky Mountain Ruby brings together Rubyists for two days of thoughtful talks, hallway conversations, and community in Boulder, Colorado.
We're especially excited because it's co-organized by WNB.rb member Bekki Freeman!
Small conference. Big Ruby energy.

To any fellow Rubyists in the PNW: XO Ruby is having a conference in Seattle on 8/8, and you should go!
It's a refreshing break from super expensive conferences you have to pay thousands to travel to. It's local, just one day, on a Saturday, and costs just $100.
I'll be bringing some fidget Ruby gems, which has unofficially become my calling card at these Ruby events.

If you were wondering where the Pride Finder stickers I had at @rubyconf came from, wonder no more!

The Ruby community is truly global.
From local meetups to major conferences, Rubyists are gathering on every inhabited continent to learn, share, and build together.
Do you organize or attend a Ruby meetup?
Drop the meetup name and location in the comments so others can find #RubyFriends and inspiring conversations close to home.

I did not survive the #Amazon #layoffs today.
If you’re looking for an energetic #Rubyist hamster who is interested in figuring out hard problems people haven’t solved before, with a track record of doing it at scale, hit me up. I’m also interested if you’re only looking for a fractional CTO to help your company out part time. Or some other collaborative role that might otherwise be hard to describe.

Feel like a casual videogames night with #RubyFriends? Our next one's just been announced!

Hey #RubyFriends, as jaded as I am about the state of our "community" right now, we still have awesome people having real, scary challenges. Ross has driven my favorite local #Ruby meetup for ages, played a part in the legendary #RubyMidwest events, and is an all around great human. I am sorry it took me this long to put this into even this tiny bit of words.

Also this is a subtoot so I have deliberately not tagged anyone. Because I am not trying to stir up anything.
But uhhh..... comms around this whole thing have been adversarial since day one, and we're all #RubyFriends here. We can increase the bus factor without demonizing people.
If there's anyone approaching anything looking like an adversary, it's DHH. :\

Photo wrap up from @rockymtnruby, it was a blast. I am thankful to be back home, but it was a great experience to catch up with so much of the #ruby community!

As mentioned at the #SFRuby meetup, I'm looking for your ancient #Ruby binaries!
The oldest I have thus far is Ruby 1.4.0 on Cygwin and Ruby 1.6.2 for Cygwin, MS-DOS DJGPP, and mingw32.
I know there are weirder platforms with official binaries. Ping your #Japanese #RubyFriends! :)
My plans include running these on weird Japanese PCs at places that retro computers show up.

Being surrounded by #RubyFriends, old and new, at #Euruko inspired me to rejoin the instance. Being around so much love and energy in the #Ruby community is fantastic. It’s my first Euruko and my first time seeing @matz live. As always, @marcoroth is pushing #Rails forward, and I can’t wait to plug in Herb on my next project. Finally, I was proud to see my teammate, @rhannequin, give his talk with such coolness and aplomb. Roll on day two tomorrow!

Hey #RubyFriends (and other friends too) 👋 I shipped a big change to my #RSpec book yesterday; here's a post about what's new and what's next. I appreciate your support! https://everydayrails.com/2025/09/16/rspec-book-rails-7

Open request to Ruby/Rails/tech podcasters: How about not booking DHH anymore. There are lots of new and interesting people to hear from who aren't nazis. #RubyLang #RubyOnRails #RubyFriends

Hey #RubyFriends, I haven't talked much #Ruby this summer. Life's been full, and I don't write much in my favorite language at my day job right now. But I am very close to (finally!) wrapping up the current edition of my #RSpec book. One more chapter to go! https://leanpub.com/everydayrailsrspec/
