@yarotheslav AI overview is killing search traffic.

My blog traffic died all of a sudden

@AmandaBPerino I’m really sorry. 🌷

2006 - 2025. Mylo ♥️, champ of champs, has left the building, 2 months shy of his 19th birthday. My god, what a run! I had him for almost half my life, and can't imagine him not in it. 💔 Hug your pets extra hard for me tonight.

@dhh Spotlight, Time Machine and other things Apple added come at a price. Also, macOS is derived from Mach and BSD which weren’t faster than Linux.

Got curious how much faster Linux is than macOS for small-file access and creation. The results are shocking: curl -L cdn.kernel.org/pub/linux/kern… -o linux.tar.xz time tar -xf linux.tar.xz Framework Desktop: 1.6s MBP M4 Pro: 12.2s Over 7x faster on these 90K files!! 🤯

@robinjescott @dhh @manchatz The current commercial operating systems offer is two SUVs. The metaphor is great.

@matheusrich No mention of RailsDiff? railsdiff.org

If you wanna use Rails 8.1 today, you can check if there's anything new in the dotfiles, Dockerfile, or the generated authentication system using rails-diff: github.com/MatheusRich/ra…

Reading a Dutch on my way to Amsterdam. 🇦🇷👋 #RailsWorld

@oboxodo Nos vemos ahí! 👋

#RailsWorld 2025 here I go! 🇺🇾✈️🇧🇷✈️🇳🇱

@ryancarson It is clicking on many that have stayed too long on macOS. The original promise of BSD Unix for the masses has been broken for awhile now.

Omarchy is the first OS since Mac OS X 10.0 Cheetah (released 24 years ago!) that feels delightful to use as a dev with taste. I’m seriously considering leaving Mac OS. You can do *everything* on the keyboard *and* the UX and DX is delightful. Need a terminal? Cmd+Enter Need @Neovim? Cmd+n Want it all instantly, beautifully tiled? Happens automatically. Need a browser? Cmd+b Want to check btop? Cmd+t I could go on for like 20 minutes. Apparently Omarchy 2.0 is coming out soon …

@mgonto @dhh DHH has amazing intuiton and taste. He seized an opportunity and applied the Rails convention over configuration recipe again. The Mac promise of a Unix for the masses has been broken for a while. I recently got my first non-Apple computer in 20 years.

I'm blown away at how @dhh was able to evangelize Omarchy to all of tech Twitter in a couple of months. He doesn't have a crazy amount of followers, what did he do so well?

@MorriceGavin @pragdave @pragdave is right here. The contortions we do to satisfy the service contract are funny. Ruby is multi-paradigm for a reason and the language embraces modules and functions.

. @pragdave has been writing a lot recently about using singleton module methods to define stateless operations. He seems to be advocating a mixed paradigm of OOP and functional programming. This is definitely a step up from the current style of creating “service objects”—at least it’s honest in its intentions. This style can also be a neat way to enforce encapsulation, and keep code modular. I have trouble adopting this way of thinking though, because it’s adding an additional layer of complexity and uncertainty in writing code that doesn’t need to exist. I now have to ask myself: Am I defining a stateful or a stateless object? Presumably, I have to review this decision from time to time, when a previously stateless entity changes and now needs state? This is a false distinction in Ruby, because the “stateless” objects do indeed have state, by virtue of being Ruby objects. The state is just hidden at a higher level of abstraction. But I think the first objection is my strongest. OOP is a powerful paradigm because of the general uniformity of everything, and this style of writing code shatters that. media.pragprog.com/newsletters/20…

@Z3RO_Y34R I’m sorry for your loss. Nice words.

@jasonbosco @railsconf @railsworld 👋

After the incredible time I had at @railsconf just booked my tickets to Amsterdam for @railsworld Who else is going to Rails World 2025?

@unagisoftware @nicogaldamez Una pena que no nos cruzamos.

Postales de una #RailsConf que nos dejó manija.

@chadfowler @rubycentralorg @railsconf @rich_kilmer I took a Rails tutorial with @pragdave and Mike Clark just before RailsConf 2007, and I’ve been doing Rails ever since! Thank you, everyone.

OG ⁦@rubycentralorg⁩ founders reunited at the final ⁦@railsconf⁩ ❤️ ⁦@rich_kilmer⁩ & David A Black

@mhenrixon I’ve noticed the opposite. I’m interested in doing a proper benchmark. Factories do much more work, and I’d be okay paying for 2-3 times the run time.

There is no reason to use fixtures anymore. They are not faster at all! Well-written factories will be slightly faster. The second file is with factories, and it is 13 seconds faster than using fixtures. So, if you want a fast test suite, you have to choose factories. I hope that finally puts that stupid argument to rest!

@dhh’s fireside talk tonight was packed with great ideas. Thank you RailsConf for having him back! #railsconf

@dhh Yesss

Mainstream Linux distros have been focused for too long on being as similar to Windows and Mac as possible to ease adoption. I've come to believe this isn't the way. Linux needs to embrace its own aesthetic, its own ethos, unapologetically. Lean into rice and TUIs!

@marianoemartin Si pudiéramos mantener la chapa cambiando de auto, simplificarían tantas cosas.

¿En qué momento dejó de ser obligatorio andar con chapa patente?

@specialCaseDev ERB formatting is long overdue. @marcoroth_ is working on this problem. github.com/marcoroth/herb

I am constantly causing errors by this equal sign before the if. Seems like that should not throw... Is there a formatter that auto-removes these at least?
