#rubyfriends — Public Fediverse posts

We are back for the second day of @[email protected]! @[email protected] kicks off the agenda with some hot takes about Hotwire and Herb. P.S. We found Nick! 😁 #Ruby #Rails #RubyFriends

I guarantee you will have a great time if you come to my talk

Pay no attention to the compiler toolchains appearing on my GitHub. 🤫

Should I plan to submit some papers to @rubyconf when the CFPs open?

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.

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.

Hanging out with #rubyfriends in Portland

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!

I have to find (and start!) a new job this month…
Today alone, I’ve applied to dozens of jobs

In Portland, Oregon / remote
#Ruby #Rails #RubyOnRails #RubyFriends #FediHire

If I don't find work this month, I'll have to start making some hard decisions that I don't wanna make :/

We were able to get some IRL time for WNB.rb members @rockymtnruby

#rockymtnruby #rubyfriends

Some new Ruby friends!!
#rubyfriends @baweaver Scott, Max, and Tyler! Ready to kick off @rockymtnruby 2025 tomorrow 🙌

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/

:ruby: Join the RubyFriends Squad on Daily.dev; share links to Ruby-related stuff. 🎈

I'm speaking at XO Ruby Atlanta! The talk is about programming games! How rad and cool they are, but more importantly, what they can teach us about Developer Experience.

@xoruby is a series of 6 affordable, regional gatherings in cities across the US - Chicago, Atlanta, New Orleans, Portland, San Diego, and Austin.

I'm stunned by some of these lineups! These are going to be some great events, and I can't wait to see my local #rubyfriends !

In Belfast on holiday and got to spend some time with the amazing, generous, and kind @nickschwaderer

#rubyfriends

I’m so grateful for @rubycentral and #RailsConf: It was great to meet old friends and make new #RubyFriends!

It’s amazing to be part of this community, both inspiring and inclusive. I hope we can meet again soon at other regional conferences! ♥️

#RailsConf2025

💥Flashback to April 2021💥 RailsConf, entirely virtual @aeden gave an online talk "10 Years In – The Realities of Running a Rails App Long Term", supporting our #RubyFriends through the challenges of the pandemic. Can't wait to see everyone in person at #RailsConf 2025!
‼️ If you’re attending and you are a customer of DNSimple, let’s connect. We’ll have some T-shirts and stickers to share. See you there!
For those feeling nostalgic full recording of the talk available 👉 https://youtu.be/BWNWOxU8KCo?si=-mfJnZ4ydrim7KTy

Rename `oauth-xx` org to `ruby-oauth`?

Intent of current name was to be a home for oauth tools across many languages, but it never materialized that way. The vestigial -xx is awkward for many reasons, and I think discoverability would improve with a ruby-* org name, and perhaps it could even bring in other oauth-related tools. I have a few thoughts about this, so 🧵

I'm very interested in others thoughts #Ruby #RubyFriends #OAuth #Authentication

I understand that many of you are employed by one or the other. And I get that I'm a D-lister at best these days, so it's easy for me to whine. But still. #RubyFriends can do better. #minaswan (5/fin)

@rubyconf 2024 was a blast! Thank you to the organizers @rubycentral for putting on yet another awesome event!

Also, thanks for all the great conversations - my #RubyFriends are so lovely and inspiring!

Hope to see you soon!

Got it!

And talked about vintage Japanese computers and how I might get a tiny version of Ruby working on a #TeraDrive.

Today’s mission: get a selfie with Matz in costume

I left a ton of my #fursona stickers on the tables downstairs at @rubyconf if you’re interested. If you want the 4” ones, reach out or locate me. I should be easy to find, what with the tail and ears.
