Is this an intention, regarding the current ruby affairs…? ☺️ Anyways, I always wanted to learn Elixir and now I think it is *the* time.

Czechia knows what it’s doing.

I'm thrilled to announce that @baweaver.bsky.social and I have just kicked off work on a second edition of Eloquent Ruby, to be published by our friends at @pragprog.com. The idea is to keep the basic structure of the book the same while updating it to Ruby as it is used today.

Watched Unfit (www.rottentomatoes.com/m/unfit_the_...) and The Apprentice and both were great and... what a monster he is!

I just published a post about how we made Tailwind 4 detect CSS classes that are _not_ contained in the main application source files but in one of the gem it uses. It utilizes some tricks to make the gem paths accessible from the project in a stable and relative way. dev.to/nejremeslnic...

1. Programming gives you the joy of hacking. 2. Testing raises confidence in its correctness. 3. Documenting helps users understand it all. In the case of public software, like OSS, to me, a complete programmer commits to the three of them.

My first Rails PR 🙂. Alright it was just a documentation fix but it was quite nontrivial to find out. github.com/rails/rails/...

Most of our dev team, including me, is joining! 🙂

Reading Rebuilding Rails (rebuilding-rails.com) to commemorate Noah and learn from him. Very sad news, RIP.

I enjoyed reading the Roadside Picnic (Stalker) by the Strugatsky brothers (in Czech). A philosophical gem inside a gangster story. Very different than the movie. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roadsid...

I built a Chrome extension yesterday that injects a button into a shared mailbox in our Outlook web so that our admins can look up the given mail sender in our CRM with a single click. It was surprisingly easy! Love to make our Support team happy 😊.

Yesterday was my birthday and thus a good time to sync my 4K Weeks poster (you basically fill a dot each week to get a high-level view of your life progress) with reality. Turns out I missed just 8 weeks during the last year, not bad! 🙂

Welcome to BSky, Josef! Nice to see you here.

Thanks for the nudge! I removed the browser check from all our apps. The weirdest thing is that this effectively blocks you from using the mobile device preview in the browser as all the virtual devices have too old User Agent strings… So weird!😣

I’ve been exploring pen plotters for over 10 years (more if you count my first plotter, a Commodore 1520). What started as a curiosity has kept me engaged as a retro computing enthusiast and captivated as an artist. Lets go back in time with some of the plotters I’ve used in various ways. 🧵

Nice read! I experienced many of the same hiccups when setting up Kamal recently. As well as a few others others 😅.

Do I know anyone that knows anyone that's great at marketing. My client is looking for someone to market an app I built them. The app is an peer-to-peer rental marketplace, if that helps narrow down anyone with a focus on that type of app.

I gathered some tips for speeding up Kamal deploys in GitHub Actions, inspired by our recent conversations here with @adrienpoly.com . dev.to/nejremeslnic...

I spent 2+ hours figuring out why our Action Mailbox does not recognize some emails and route them properly. The solution was to add the single letter "O" to our SMTP server config. Mailing is hard.

The industrious folks at @cloud66 asked me to write "The Ultimate Guide to Hotwire", and I did my best: blog.cloud66.com/the-ultimate...

Love that I came across this again just today. m.youtube.com/watch?v=x_DA...

I never realized until being told yesterday how setting a denying auto-reply for a given weekday in my calendar may sound arrogant because I haven't included an explanation 😬. Not everybody knows the context of my working hours, of course!

New: A conceptual model of how ATProto works, for ActivityPub people I wrote about how to think about how ATProto works, how it differs from ActivityPub, and what decentralisation and federation even mean anymore fediversereport.com/a-conceptual...

Had fun today converting some old blurry icons to SVGs using AI. After trying various free online tools I got some great results when upscaling the icons 4× with imgupscaler.com first and vectorizing them only after that. www.recraft.ai performed the best for me w/out needing any elaborate tweaks.

Moved my personal website to bora.ma and updated my GH profile page so that everything is nicely aligned. Now, high time to wake up the kids! 😅

OK, bought a Moroccan domain to get this cool handle that I'm used to 😀

Finished my first more serious Docker + Kamal installation: - Kamal is very nice but it's just a thin layer so you have to learn Docker pretty well - dockerizing Chrome is doable but just… insanely tedious - didn't enjoy hardening Docker and it's incompabilities with ufw Overall, learned a ton! 😅

Here’s how to spread the word about Bluesky on X without triggering the algorithm and/or people’s preconceptions. Sell the benefits! Nicely done, @joel.drapper.me

Hello there! 👋 I think I'm making a switch from the other site… to here. I'm not really a frequent poster, usually just 👀 and 👍-ing. But this might change once I fully relax in the Skies (so far so good). Happy to be here!
