Looking forward to seeing old and new #RubyFriends at @sfruby.com next month! Who's going?! #SFRuby #Ruby
This project is cool but I don’t understand why we need a new tool when RubyCritic already does this. github.com/tools4imps/e... #opensource #ai #rubygems

🌳 Stuck a few versions behind on Ruby? Bonsai by FastRuby.io® is the fixed-cost monthly maintenance plan that chips away at upgrades, dependencies, and security patches — no giant migration required. #Ruby #Rails #TechDebt 👉go.fastruby.io/zpo [from my GitHub sponsor]
You can find me in the hallway track, and always happy to talk about #opensource, Rails, #AI, and tech debt remediation. This is something we’ve been investing a lot of time on at @fastruby.io and @ombulabs.ai

Friendly reminder to JRuby users out there: JRuby dev is now funded almost exclusively by support services from headius.com/services, delivering priority bug fixes, security SLAs, codebase and performance help under NDA, and much more. Sign up today or ping me for more info... and tell your friends!

90 days. New codebase. Shipping value while still figuring out where the service objects live. Andrea Fomera's field report on AI-assisted onboarding is the playbook you didn't know you needed. Get your early bird ticket still! rockymtnruby.dev/tickets

This year's @rmrubyconf.bsky.social is looking like a good one (that first talk excluded with my face next to it) rockymtnruby.dev/sessions/ But if you're able to, you should come to my talk too. I'll try to make it worth your time

Hanami 3.0 wouldn’t be so full of goodness without the support of our sponsors. Rubyists deserve choice, and these fine companies are helping make it happen. Thank you to @mike.contribsys.com, @baweaver.bsky.social, @honeybadger.io, @fastruby.io, @appsignal.com, and @serpapi.com!
Hanami 3.0 is here and in full bloom 🌸 This is our most complete release yet: mailers, i18n, and Minitest now built in, your apps faster by default, and plenty more! hanakai.org/blog/2026/06...

Tech debt shows up in how long it takes to ship a small change... Here are a few lessons learned by @planetargon.com in their client projects: go.fastruby.io/g6j #TechnicalDebt #RubyOnRails
Maybe @github.com wouldn't have so many stability issues if their "report content app" actually worked? I was simply trying to report this spam comment: github.com/DatabaseClea... #spam
