trying to concat into an array accessed via a prepend/super and I'm obviously missing something here. Ruby twitter, what am I missing?

@schwad_rb I think you just got a little confused about the ordering. `prepend` inserts the module first in the method lookup chain. So `John#thing` is never called. Perhaps use `include` to insert afterwards?

I'm currently have availability for freelance full stack Ruby/Rails web development work. Tech friends I would appreciate a RT for reach! Here's me on GitHub: github.com/Najaf

@simonleggsays ✊

Having a beer in support of the rail workers strike!

@robhawkes Under The Stairs: underthestairs.org Great food, good vibes.

Headed to 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Edinburgh soon for a few days, for fun this time as it's been for work in the past so haven't explored much. Any recommendations on places to eat and drink? Looking for something nice as it's a trip for my foodie-girlfriend's birthday, so not on a tight budget.

@markthefisher I saw that! Kind of difficult to even wrap your head around, how one can even be that out of touch!

Perhaps our government, who are so against “virtue signalling”, could in addition to raising flags and lighting up buildings remove visa restrictions for all Ukrainians. Actions speak louder; let’s show the world that we truly Stand with Ukraine. 🇺🇦

@robhawkes Yeah, I jumped on the M1 bandwagon with an M1. Loving it, great machine. Snappy, and totally quiet. I’ve just ordered a MacBook Pro 14”, with the same 16GB because I didn’t feel like I needed more. If you’re interested I might be able to do a deal on a second-hand Mac Mini?

Anyone got an M1 Mac Mini? Curious how you get on with it and which spec you went for. Thinking about getting one to ease myself back into the Apple ecosystem for personal stuff without laying down obscene amounts on a MacBook Pro. Various cons but it's much cheaper 🤷‍♂️

@simonleggsays Yay! 🎉 Looks great. Try focaccia, not as good in a sandwich, but tasty AF.

I made bread for the first time (as an adult) and it’s not completely shit!! 🧑‍🍳 🍞

@dctanner Perhaps you’ve already modelled it, but over a lifetime there’s also the benefit of being able to invest (and make gains on) the money that would have otherwise been taxed.

UK folk: my back of the napkin math suggests that a SIPP only yields about 10% total additional benefit/gain over a lifetime. Income tax in the pension withdrawals phase undoes tax relief on the way in. Anyone else reached a similar conclusion?

I’m currently available for remote freelance work on Ruby/Rails teams, in a development/leadership/hybrid capacity. Here’s me: github.com/Najaf Developer friends, I’d appreciate a retweet for reach 🙇🏻‍♂️🙇🏻‍♂️🙇🏻‍♂️

@tomstuart Yeah. In the same vein as removal of auto-merge. Now a human just presses the button to merge the dependency, without checking if there’s some glaring security vulnerability, instead of the computer doing it for me. 🤷‍♂️

@ollylegg It definitely hasn’t solved anything in my case because every time it failed I just made a confused face and ran the workflow manually. Maybe I’ve already been pwned. Who’s even writing this tweet???

For months I’ve been confused about why GitHub Actions are broken for Dependabot PRs. TIL it’s because secrets were made silently unavailable for runs it triggers. So I have to push a button instead, which is no more secure but (crucially) less convenient. github.blog/changelog/2021…

@tomstuart Yeah. I guess at least then the workflow definition is “trusted”, but it is very annoying. I understand the concern about supply-chain attacks, but I’m not sure this is actually solving anything.

@ollylegg Right, but then your workflow has to explicitly check out the head ref of the PR, which is exactly what `pull_request_target` is designed to avoid? What an unnecessary palaver.

@mattsoutherden I once had a barber, stop cutting my hair, to scroll through Wish and show me all the great offers that I could have access to! An app I was blissfully unaware of until that moment in time.

Listening to the idle chat in the barbers is like the lunatic side of Facebook in real life.

@aggamut Well... time to get up then!

@ollylegg Actually...

It appears as if the suez boat has finally moved.... so time to get up

@lukeredpath I don’t remember how, but if you anticipate more VAT refunds, it is possible to get it setup so they pay it into your bank account.

Oh, it was a VAT refund. My first in 12 years. Sent as a cheque. In 2021. How quaint. I don’t even know how to pay a cheque into @StarlingBank.

Me, when I get a cheque in the post from @HMRCgovuk that I wasn’t expecting.

📣 I’m looking for a new job! I do the JavaScripts in the client and server and primarily would like to work with some lovely, thoughtful people. Looking in Berlin or Remote. My DMs are open, I’d love to hear if you know of anything. RTs appreciated 🙏
