I haven't deleted this account because who knows what the future holds for X. Occasionally, I log in read-only to check things out. But, for now, my timeline moved to bsky.app/profile/fxn.bs….

I’m exploring new opportunities. My interest is in data infrastructure, high-concurrency, and technical leadership. I like building things that shouldn't work at scale, but do. If you're building a technical org or solving hard data problems, my DMs are open. No rush, just looking for the right fit.

The organic neural network inside my cranium has generated Zeitwerk 2.7.5. This is a maintenance release: performance improvements, uses `Dir.scan` if available (only in Ruby `master` for now), docs, and quite a bit of internal work.

@schwad_rb @obie When my provider (Youth & Earth) launched their all-in-one solution, I simplified to 1 supplement (V14). And then, the pillars, high-quality food, physical activity, low-to-none stress, sleep, meditation (though I have meditated for decades, health benefits are a side-effect).

@obie I have been doing this slowly. Will only add one thing at a time every few months and only after a lot of reading. I started down this journey a few years ago after @fxn shared some interesting research that nerdsniped me. Thanks for sharing your stack

@bradgessler Does not ring a bell, can you provide more details? Maybe open an issue in rails/rails and tag me?

This "fixes" it, but I have no idea what's going on or why I have to setup so many paths. @fxn are you aware of any changes in 8.x to autoloading that might not have made the change log?

@fxnction Hi @fxnction, not for now.

The #RailsWorld CFP is open and we are excited to see what talks you have in store. A lot of information about what we are looking for can be found here: rubyonrails.org/2025/3/7/apply… Good luck to all who apply. Hope to see you in Amsterdam. :)

@cezaryklos @rails And Happy New Year to you too!

@cezaryklos @rails Error control ensures that the expected constant is defined, loading the file can define additional constants as a side-effect (e.g., could require "nokogiri"). However, UserError is not autoloadable, if you refer to UserError without loading the controller it won't be found.

@rails @fxn In Rails app with Zeitwerk I found code as below. Zeitwerk has no problem autoloading it... but I was under an impression that it should fail due to UserError not maching filename. What am I missing? PS. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Ruby Prize 2024受賞者は、Tomoya Ishida様です！おめでとうございます！ #rubyworld

Behold! The all mighty hyperlink to the post. Got a ton of help from @fxn on this post. I'm hoping it brings clarity to the next person who wants to integrate Zeitwerk into their multi-gem monorepo. 🧘 tinyzap.co/QPjhKy

Yesterday was an incredible day for our merchants and for Shopify: * Merchants drove a record-breaking $5 billion Black Friday in sales (GMV) * Peak sales / minute for yesterday = $4.6 million * Shopify's egress processed more than 173B requests * Peak requests per minute was at 284 million on edge, with more than 80 million on app servers pushing 12TB a minute * 45 million peak database queries per second, peak database writes was 7.6 million per second * We rely on Kafka. At peak we hit 66 million messages per second Let's keep going 🔥

Indexa Capital ha sido un gran acierto para mí. Llevo 9 años invirtiendo con @IndexaCapital con una rentabilidad acumulada de +81,6% (+6,9% anual, volatilidad anualizada 9,5%). Mi enlace de invitación-descuento por si quieres probar el servicio: indexacapital.com/es/esp/share-p…

@blaunoticies @ajcubelles La "part central" vol dir el braç de terra i roques que arriba a l'escullera des de terra ferma, i per tant l'escullera (incloent-hi la balissa?) romandran en el mateix lloc, només que envoltats d'aigua? /cc @ajcubelles

🔵 Finalment s’enderrocarà la part central de la dàrsena de Cubelles. No és l'opció que volia l'Ajuntament cubellenc, però assegura que tampoc és la pitjor de les opcions plantejades @ajcubelles #Cubelles canalblau.tv/2024/11/28/fin…

@schwad_rb Yes! I take 750-1000 gr of NMN (sublingual) and 250–500 ml of Resveratrol (liposomal) daily. Those are my only regular suplements (plus the occasional vitamin).

@fxn So, in 2023 I bought LifeSpan and the past 20 months have been making incremental changes. All for the better I am happy to report. Part of my stack includes Resveratrol not and others from the Sinclair stack. Are you still taking NMN? Thinking of that next.

After reading "Lifespan", I've started to take two supplements: NMN, and resveratrol. I was already doing calory restriction and exercise. The homework is being done.

I am reading the user manual of Typst from cover to cover. Because, why not. Did quite a bit of LaTeX during my degree, which was (checks notes) _just_ some 25 years ago.

Rails World 2024 videos have been re-edited. This is my talk about how do Rails applications boot youtube.com/watch?v=Kx0ihL…

@lucianghinda My tagline has been "Ministry of KISS and YAGNI" for a long time (e.g., client Slack account) 🤣

@fxn Really nice job titles. I think I now want to see how I would describe some of mine

Instant fan of the job titles of the creators of Typst. The LinkedIn mind cannot comprehend these guys ship shit.
