I don’t think luck will help much unfortunately.

Chamomile maybe…

Nothing beats your last day of PTO in bed with a freaking migraine, counting the time left until the next painkiller intake.

T’Choupi is such an AH kid. I used to tell my kids that if at any point they acted like him they would be grounded.

Working on internal tools can be so rewarding. Nobody makes big announcements for the projects because they don’t sell. Even when building something specific for a user facing feature, mentions in announcements are rare. Everybody just expects that it works and they all freak out when it does not.

Rain creates a crimson spectacle on Iran's Hormuz Island for the first time this year Rainfall this week on Iran's Hormuz Island has briefly transformed the coastline of the famed Red Beach into a striking natural scene.

Nature is incredible.

Why EvilΒ Martians hosted a Ruby conference in SanΒ Franciscoβ€”Martian Chronicles, Evil Martians’ team blog Here's why we scaled up our San Francisco Ruby meetups to SF Ruby Conf with 400+ Ruby engineers for three days of technical talks and startup demos.

β€œThe promise of Rails is being fulfilled. People just haven’t caught up with this reality yet,” says @inazarova.bsky.social.

We wrote about SF Ruby and reveal the real reason we decided to host the conference.

15 years ago I used to listen to a French Alt radio station that was broadcasting a very specific acoustic version of a K’s Choice song they sang for a German radio station. I found the recording on YouTube at the time and it’s the only way I listen to that song. The video has 20k views and 80% of

The new question Ruby conferences have to add to their registration forms now (in addition to t-shirt size) is "do you need a Ruby passport?"

One thing that would be lovely for i18n is the support out-of-the-box of the ICU message formatting for plurals.

Is there out there any **reliable** app to manage Windows devices (parental control) that is not Norton?
Something I can control from my phone even when I am on the other side of the globe.

Yes it’s written in Fren-glish.
No I didn’t not cook anybody’s legs, just turkey drumsticks.
Of course I ended up with 2 dishes of cobbler…

Carefully put it still boiling in a jar, close it, turn the jar upside down, let it cool completely before putting in the fridge.

My way to prepare it:
- bag of cranberries
- one apple, or pear
- juice of an orange + zest
- up to 3/4 cup of sugar
- 1 cup of water
- cinnamon if you like it
Mix everything in a saucepan and forget about it on medium heat for 30 min.
Crush with a fork if you don’t want chunks.
