Thank you! My eyes will appreciate it!

Can we also nerd-snipe you into having an optional light theme for your blog? I have to edit the CSS everytime to flip the colours back to read it 😂

so there is a function helper that does the same thing, yet returns the result; which you could use to assert silence, I'm not sure there a hook you could use to wrap tests but you could macro it?

Zero printed? Or zero emitted? `ExUnit.start(capture_log: true)` can silence messages but its not a "assert non emitted" type deal (and can be a bit flakey with umbrellas / processes outside the test scope which you don't want anyway)

Ruby Central said some really concerning things today. I don’t think they’re representing the situation accurately. andre.arko.net/2025/10/09/t...

We need a Ruby Central which is not beholden to DHH and Shopify money but representative of the larger community. Why aren't the board of directors publicly elected, like Python?

Too little... too late @rubycentral this change should have been announced and publicised in advance of you actually doing it, with a clear timeline, and time for the community to respond **before** you did it.

It's a really bad look for RubyCentral even if there was somehow a legitimate reason for this it's at best poorly managed communications wise and worst... idk...

You can find me on Github and I have a summary of experience that I use in lieu of a CV available on request, DM me, thank you! (reposts appreciated!)

I’m mostly looking for remote contracting/consultancy roles, ideally 30 hours / 4 days a week but can do 40/5 and I’m based in the UK but I’ve worked with a variety of US clients and an 3-4 hour overlap is no problem.

I’ve worked with everyone from large e-commerce companies, media organisations to founders building MVPs to prove out concepts for investors, however I have a strict no crypto/gambling policy.

Hey bksy, I’m on the look out for my next project, I’m an experienced Elixir dev (> 8 years commercially, and > 10 years of Ruby before that + I'm still the maintainer of RSpec), very familiar with Phoenix and LiveView, and have enough CSS / JS knowledge to approach projects from a full stack angle.

From a clock tower

Super slick upgrade to LiveView 1.0.0, the `{ ... }` syntax in the body of templates is going to take some mental rewriting but nice to see the formatter step in and upgrade me (and its opt out able which is also nice to see)

I also write Elixir 😂

Introducing the RSpec monorepo, and some updates on the future of RSpec.

Announcing the Monorepo.

We’re switching to a monorepo out of the rspec/rspec repository on Github, for the full story:

rspec.info/blog/2024/11...

Its implied by the "live layout" parts of the documentation, anything inside the top container element of liveview is "inside the liveview" so only the root layout is outside.
