I had a blast at @rmrubyconf.bsky.social and @xoruby.com last week. It was great to see old Ruby friends and make some new ones.

Also, I'm pretty sure that was the first time I've attended two conferences in the same week. :)

More lightning talks! Importantly, many of our sponsors send devs, who are represented here talking about their own passion projects (Caribou, Checkr, Meraki)

It's difficult with Twitter fracturing to make sure we capture speaker handles properly, especially in the flurry of posting the day of. If you have content regarding your talk you want shared, or want us to update a post w/ a handle, just tag us on your fave post, photo, reply!

Jeff Cohen and the persistent question of a developer's existence - if the key to success is always learning new things, what does that mean? And how can you improve how you learn?

Another great reason to attend community conferences like @rmrubyconf.bsky.social or @sw2con.bsky.social .

Job opportunities and chances for conversations with hiring managers where you are not flotsam in the LinkedIn sea.
