I joined the Rails Business Podcast to talk about how I got into Rails, the path from freelance work to running two small Rails-based businesses and lots more.

Lovely lunch and catchup with @bjessbrown.com

Yep, your selfie was better than mine :)

Any ruby, rails, or indie rails friends want to meetup?

Yea, good point. I chose a bad example.

This is better:

Job.where(status: 1)
.merge(
Job.where(state: 'GA').or(Job.where(region: 'N-FL'))
)

Job.where(status: 1).where(state: 'GA').or(Job.where(state: 'AL')) - NOPE - you'll get jobs in AL for all statuses.

ANSWER:

Job.where(status: 1).merge(
Job.where(state: 'GA').or(Job.where(state: 'AL'))
)

What if you want to write this query in AR?

select * from jobs where jobs.status = 1 AND (jobs.state = 'GA' or jobs.state = 'AL')

Job.where(status: 1).where(state: 'GA').or(state: 'AL') - NOPE

Thanks for taking the time with us Garrett. I learned a lot!

The #Ruby community is filled with some amazing people, and @jremsikjr.bsky.social stands out as one of my favorites. Our conversation covered numerous insightful topics, especially the discussion about permission, which resonated with me in particular. Check it out!

Thanks again for joining us, Jim! I always feel wiser after speaking with you. 😊

Ruby on Rails Podcast: Taking over Fireside.fm I was stoked when I discovered that the Ruby on Rails podcast is hosted on our platform – fireside.fm. So I reached out to Elise for feedback and to volunteer Garrett and I for an episode. We recorded last week and its already live today. Our chat covered taking over

🎙️ @garrettdimon.com and I were on the latest episode of the Ruby on Rails pod. Lots of good stories from taking over an older Rails app -- ruby and rails upgrades, redis upgrades, configuration tweaks, analytics, etc. Elise was a great host! Give it a listen.

Actually we had snow in the south so it’s totally acceptable 😆

Maybe people thought you were broadcasting from Aspen and had just come in from snowboarding

Indie rails getting a little Flagrant today @jremsikjr.bsky.social @jeremysmith.co

Always down to chat about buying businesses.

I loved hearing your stories Paul. I could’ve listened several more hours. Thanks for sharing.

Well said.
