Here. We. Go! About to hit the road and cruise up north. Will you be there? I’m excited for this event. A great community of fellow programmers and plenty of new #rubyfriends Estou entusiasmado para este evento. Uma grande comunidade de colegas programadores e muitos novos #rubyfriends #rubylang

I'm grateful for the recent opportunity to be part of the Conference Program Committee for @eurukoconf.bsky.social alongside so many experienced devs, leaders and organizers. So many great talk proposals came through. Looking forward to seeing everyone and learning a ton in September!

I feel the random need today to throw a shoutout to @adrienpoly.com and @marcoroth.dev for continuously pushing some amazing work out on @rubyevents.org for the ruby and rails community. For an insane collection of indexed talks by topic/speaker/event, this is your spot. www.rubyevents.org

Feel like popping over to Portugal in September for a great Ruby conference in a beautiful coastal city? 🟢 Early Bird Tickets are up for EuRuKo 2025 🟢 2025.euruko.org

Introducing Tidewave: tidewave.ai While working on our web apps, we run code, query the database, read logs, search docs… but our AI tools are limited to reading code. Tidewave closes this gap by introducing Runtime Intelligence, for Phoenix and Rails. More coming soon, check out the website!

Day 2 of @alchemyconf.com - Here we go! #elixir #erlang #theatrocirco #braga

Agora, espero .. Estou pronto para Braga. ⏱️ Acho que até lembrei-me (<-é correto?) dos meus produtos de higiene e carregadores! 🤯 Now, I wait. I’m ready for Braga! I think I even remembered my toiletries and chargers! (Always a struggle) Let’s go! @alchemyconf.com #elixir

All planning done for @alchemyconf.com As someone who only toys lightly with Elixir/Phoenix, I’m mainly excited to meet tons of new people (I don’t know anyone!) and soak up some knowledge. Off to Braga and the beautiful Teatro Circo soon. 🚂 Should be a fun one! See you there.

Remembered and logged in to my old Last.fm account. 🎧 The power of music never ceases to amaze me. Playing these, I was immediately flooded with crystal clear memories of events, amazing moments, tragic moments, friends, family, ALL THE THINGS associated with those periods of my life. Love it.

Working on long-needed updates to my side project homelesshelp.io in #rails, while watching @vuejsnation.com conference, while flipping through Practical UI on breaks, while planning an app in #laravel Sorry in advance, brain. 🤷‍♂️

A lot of folks have been asking me what exactly they’ll learn in my new book, Hotwire Native for Rails Developers. So here’s a quick chapter-by-chapter rundown of what’s inside. 👇

Whoaaa, buddy! Look what's on the horizon. Let's go, Stephen! @fractaledmind.bsky.social This is a brilliant collab, @aaronfrancis.com 👍

Announcing the LIVEVIEW AND OTP CRASH COURSE. In this FREE 15-lesson tutorial, you'll learn the basics of Phoenix LiveView: what it is, how it works, how to build a LiveView app, and how it makes use of Elixir's OTP and BEAM. Sign up at LiveViewCrashCourse.com

🎾 Almost a 5 hour match! 🎾 Excellent play between these two. Great match. Go take a nap.

I won't be there, but heads up for anyone wanting to get in on the CFP action for @balticruby.bsky.social - 1 month 📆 #ruby #rubyonrails #balticruby

I've been using PHPStorm mainly for my deep dive into Laravel (which has been incredible - both the editor and the framework), but as a person who bounces between editors I'm excited for this!

I truly miss the days without unlimited options. Example - Music: ☞ Save up money ☞ Go to a dedicated music store ☞ Flip through a billion albums to find ones that seem interesting ☞ Take those CDs to a station with headphones and speed-listen one-by-one to the albums to see which I want.

All I'm craving in Bluesky is the ability to bookmark/save posts. I like to save references which are important to me in this moment, forget they exist, then remember them in a couple years when I take time to clear out bookmarks. But seriously, bookmarks would be a nice addition. 👍

I took this week to take a break from all my #rubyonrails projects/ideas and took a dive head-first into #laravel and @filamentphp.com. The only thing I've been thinking is: This is so much fun! Remember to break away from the norm and just play every once in a while. Development is fun!

Away in the mountains for some relax time with my wife and we’re playing games without tech. First and last hand-drawn game of Battleships I’ll ever play. Super fun, but NEVER play with single square ships. Brutal. We need a vacation from our vacation after that brain-bender. 🤯 🎉

+1 attending #AlchemyConf next year in Braga, Portugal. Excited to expand my network and meet some cool people! alchemyconf.com #elixirlang

I constantly forget it exists, but if you’re looking to pick up a new language or just see a quick ref, learnxinyminutes.com is a great quick-look into programming languages. I take a peek a couple times each year when I remember it. Enjoy!

It’s been really cool watching this site grow and evolve!

Finally taking my first dive into ViewComponents. Thoughts in order: - This is much easier to setup and get going than I thought it would be. Nice! - It's so simple to write these. - It's so difficult to plan these. - I have no clue what I'm doing. - I'm hungry. Summary: So far so good.

In the rare case you haven’t seen the Keynote from Rails World 2024 about Rails 8 and 8.1, take a peek to see what can be used now and what’s on the horizon. Fun stuff! The rest of the Rails World vids are up on this same channel if you want to view those, as well. 👍 youtu.be/-cEn_83zRFw?...

Rockin’ 1000 in Portugal was super fun!
