I don't think that is true any more. Many people don't like it but many others do and the term usage spreads continually.

Czechia knows what it’s doing.

I'm thrilled to announce that @baweaver.bsky.social and I have just kicked off work on a second edition of Eloquent Ruby, to be published by our friends at @pragprog.com.

The idea is to keep the basic structure of the book the same while updating it to Ruby as it is used today.

#Unfit: The Psychology of Donald Trump | Rotten Tomatoes Mental health professionals discuss the behavior and stability of President Donald Trump.

Watched Unfit (www.rottentomatoes.com/m/unfit_the_...) and The Apprentice and both were great and... what a monster he is!

Tipuju, že to bude příliš dlouhým bezvětřím, lokální zdroje znečištění prostě už pár dní nic nerozfoukává.

Off topic - this was fun but the current political situation as well as certain community leaders statements mostly make me frozen and barely able to work and even less enjoy it. What the hell… 🥶🤷

How to detect classes contained in ruby gems in Tailwind 4 Our main web app uses Tailwind CSS and we are happy to have recently migrated it to Tailwind version...

I just published a post about how we made Tailwind 4 detect CSS classes that are _not_ contained in the main application source files but in one of the gem it uses. It utilizes some tricks to make the gem paths accessible from the project in a stable and relative way.

1. Programming gives you the joy of hacking.
2. Testing raises confidence in its correctness.
3. Documenting helps users understand it all.

In the case of public software, like OSS, to me, a complete programmer commits to the three of them.

I look forward to reading this masterhotwire.com but it's still in beta.

Thanks, Gregory, for the kind words!

Fix usable values for openssl_verify_mode in Action Mailer configuration guide [ci skip] by borama · Pull Request #54242 · rails/rails Motivation / Background I followed the Configuration Guide for setting the openssl_verify_mode SMTP settings in Action Mailer. I specifically used a Symbol :none as mentioned in the guide. However ...

My first Rails PR 🙂. Alright it was just a documentation fix but it was quite nontrivial to find out. github.com/rails/rails/...

Most of our dev team, including me, is joining! 🙂

Reading Rebuilding Rails (rebuilding-rails.com) to commemorate Noah and learn from him. Very sad news, RIP.

The book contained also a description of the authors fighting with the Soviet censorship when releasing this book for the first time. So absurd and… Russian. They had to update / rewrite it like 20 times before being allowed to publish it.

Roadside Picnic - Wikipedia

I enjoyed reading the Roadside Picnic (Stalker) by the Strugatsky brothers (in Czech). A philosophical gem inside a gangster story. Very different than the movie. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roadsid...

Ideally, guess it from a good name :)

I bet Zack is talking about Recurring tasks as a feature of the Solid Queue gem. github.com/rails/solid_...

Since it uses Fugit to parse the cron schedules, I guess it uses ruby's (server's) TZ unless you specify it explicitly github.com/floraison/fu...

I just finished it a couple days ago and got successfully brainwashed (see preface 🙂). Enjoy!

This brings some nice memories, thanks!

Source code for a browser extension placing a link to our internal CRM to Outlook web.

About 3 hours but most of the time I just tinkered with proper CSS selectors to extract the right stuff from the page and place the button to the right place. This is actually the complete code:

A screenshot from our Outlook shared mailbox with a lookup button shown besides one of the email sender addresses.

I built a Chrome extension yesterday that injects a button into a shared mailbox in our Outlook web so that our admins can look up the given mail sender in our CRM with a single click. It was surprisingly easy! Love to make our Support team happy 😊.

During a routine Rails server upgrade, a misconfigured Metabase process sneaked in and took the port 3000. Repeatedly, even after killing it (through systemd automatic restarts). It took me 15 minutes to figure this out and get rid of it...

My 4K Weeks poster where I draw a dot each week to be in a high-level contact with my life progress. Almost all dots for my past year are filled.

Yesterday was my birthday and thus a good time to sync my 4K Weeks poster (you basically fill a dot each week to get a high-level view of your life progress) with reality. Turns out I missed just 8 weeks during the last year, not bad! 🙂

Welcome to BSky, Josef! Nice to see you here.

Thanks for the nudge! I removed the browser check from all our apps. The weirdest thing is that this effectively blocks you from using the mobile device preview in the browser as all the virtual devices have too old User Agent strings… So weird!😣

A Commodore 1520 pen plotter with 4” wide paper and a color stripped Commodore logo printed on it.

I’ve been exploring pen plotters for over 10 years (more if you count my first plotter, a Commodore 1520). What started as a curiosity has kept me engaged as a retro computing enthusiast and captivated as an artist. Lets go back in time with some of the plotters I’ve used in various ways. 🧵

Nice read! I experienced many of the same hiccups when setting up Kamal recently. As well as a few others others 😅.

Oh! I see
