I’ll be there! Will you be around that week?

I thought for sure this was a troll account.

Maybe the question you asked their support team exceeded the 5 Boolean question quota?

Revealing Rails Magic with Enums, Tue, Feb 17, 2026, 5:30 PM | Meetup “Rails magic” is a term many people use to describe the ease with which Rails helps you go from zero to working app so quickly. However, like all other frameworks, there’s

This month @meg-gutshall.bsky.social will be joining @phillyrb.org to break down the ActiveRecord Enums module. Don't miss out on this talk breaking down some of the "rails magic" that you may be taking for granted. RSVP here: www.meetup.com/phillyrb/eve...

This effect is so cool but so unnecessary lol

Check out the details in this post. mikedalton.co/2026/01/26/h...

How are others doing this? Is there a simper approach?

I’ve talked at a couple events recently about Hotwire Native and how to implement OAuth in a Hotwire Native app. The approach I take is to authenticate in a system browser which allows you to keep most of the logic the same between web and native apps.

I'm pretty tired of 1password. They removed Dropbox support, forced everyone to subscribe. I wouldn't recommend it for someone new to password managers but I've been dragging my feet on switching myself.

They are saying it was a mistake and rolling out a fix but regardless its really concerning that a password manager doesn't have enough controls in place to prevent this or at least identify it before the community does.

I've been driving myself crazy trying to figure out why syntax highlighting is not working on my personal site. It turns out @1password.bsky.social introduced a change to their Chrome extension that deletes elements in code tags. www.1password.community/discussions/...

There’s a sidekiq feature called unique jobs that can do this. Though it might only be for certain tiers. There may be an alternative open source implementation.

Gonna stream again in a little under an hour! Come join and help me decide what I should do next. UX or new features??

Looking forward to seeing a lot of mustaches at @blueridgeruby.com !

Thanks for having me speak about Hotwire Native at Philly.rb last night!

Tomorrow night I’ll be speaking about Hotwire Native at Philly.rb. Come check it out!

I did the exact same thing (left Evernote for Obsidian) and I also don’t love it. Looking forward to see what recs you get.

Thanks Cody!

Next week is Philly.rb! @kcdragon.bsky.social is joining us for an intro to Hotwire Native. If you’ve been curious about taking Rails to mobile without going all-in on Swift/Kotlin, this is a great chance to learn how teams are doing it in practice.

Nice. Where do you usually go?

I just completed "Secret Entrance" - Day 1 - Advent of Code 2025 #AdventOfCode adventofcode.com/2025/day/1

RBQ Conf is officially cookin’.

Our CFP is open, and we’re looking for sponsors who want to support a warm, community-first Ruby gathering in Austin.

If you’ve got a meaty idea to share—or want to help bring year one to life—we’d love to hear from you.

On the way!

I forgot it 🤦

Nice. Thats a good use for it.

One of my favorite parts of using tools like Claude is finding out about things that I didn't know existed. Just learned about "current_page?" in Rails. I thought that Claude wanted to create that method or hallucinated it but it turns out its a real method in Rails.

I haven’t thought about this before but I think I’d prefer order that they trigger.

See you there!
