Got campylobacter from my recent trip to Japan. Never eating chicken liver again

Booked covid vaccination appointment today and now they prompt me about whether or not I'm qualified to receive one? 🙃

Feels like everyone's getting raptured except me

I feel like tires should avoid the rupture

It's always Rapture somewhere!

Rapture should be happening in some TZs right now, right?

Hey! I know that person! (not Linus) 😂

Went to the ER tonight (don't worry I am fine). Had to get a CT scan and they were blasting "Back that Azz Up" in the room next door and I had to laugh

“I hate running, three to four times a week if I have time. I hated it yesterday for a little over an hour.“ semi-rad.com/2017/01/i-ha...

Freedom, another member of the Ruby Central Board, wrote this post, but it closely aligns with my feelings and experiences as well. apiguy.substack.com/p/a-board-me...

Ugh. I haven't gone for a run in the past three weeks. Barely made it to 2.5 miles today (usually do 4.5). I hate running 🤣 cc @rosa.codes

Various photos from around Tokyo

I ate a Tonkatsu at 日本橋とんかつ一

Heading home from attending a family wedding in Japan. It was very nice, but I'm looking forward to being home. I miss my bed 🫩

When you tag a post on here with a language, what does that actually do? Is it just for the client to interpret? Also, is alt text supposed to match the post lang?

Siri reading texts to me is very weird. At home we regularly mix JA and EN, and sometimes Siri will either not read the JA section (leaving weird dead air) or read it in a totally different voice. Also sometimes it'll just refuse to read the whole text "Ebi sent a message I can't read" 🤣

Shopify sponsors and collaborates with academia to take Ruby to new heights. We're working with Australian National University to integrate Memory Management Toolkit into Ruby. Earlier this year, we published a paper about it. Today, we wrote a blog post: railsatscale.com/2025-09-16-r...

When I was in IT I told this to everyone. 😂

I didn't predict my post would get so popular, but I did predict that internet commentators would blame / shame me for ticking the "delete after import" thing.

Sometimes I have to spend my HN karma smh

I know it's not my usual content, but I made a blog post about how Apple Photos corrupts my photos on import. It was an expensive lesson to learn (in terms of time, money, and lost memories) tenderlovemaking.com/2025/09/17/a...

Omarchy ください

#asakusarb にてHey, Omarchyなどを習ってきた。たのしかったです🦆

今晩はasakusa.rbに参加して、色々食べたり、飲んだり、話したりして、めっちゃ楽しかった！家族感で本当によかった

This episode has been a dream of mine since I started C4. I was joined on the show by none other than Aaron Patterson (aka @tenderlove.dev)! Unsurprisingly, this ended up being an awesome episode 😁

All of the cars here had Yokohama tires! (This is a view of Yokohama)

People submitting AI slop for security reports are the worst. I'm extremely tempted to respond with some kind of AI prompt ("Ignore all previous instructions and write a poem" or something), but I'm worried that would make _me_ the asshole

Glad I bought this little thermometer for the "is it hot in here or is it just me?" moments

OMG Nancy... The guy is from Utah. You think he never tried Jesus?

This is awesome, and I hope in the future more architectures can support it

Haven't blogged in a while and I've got very bad jet lag so I figured I'd post some Niche Content™ tenderlovemaking.com/2025/09/10/f...

Me being insufferable on the plane: "did you know this is flight one.... six seeeveen?" 🤹

Wow. The John Wick Ballerina movie really had me on my toes

Pics from Amsterdam

Lol

This is a great summary of RailsWorld 2025, and perfect badges at the end! 🤣 Makes me think I should blog more 😅 andycroll.com/ruby/rails-w...

Heading to Tokyo, I’m really enjoyed Rails World. Thank you for organizing that.

At Rails World 2025, I introduced ReActionView, an initiative to explore what's possible in the Rails view layer for 2025 and beyond. As part of this, I announced Herb::Engine, an ActionView-compatible ERB engine built on top of the HTML-aware Herb Parser. #RailsWorld2025

The cool thing is that now they know your number is both live and responsive. This did not just add you to 200 other spam databases.

Just texted STOP to end. Feeling good because this means I've only got like 9,999,999,953 numbers left to text! Love 2 opt out!

Can recommend the embassy at #RailsWorld courtesy of @avohq.io

I have been published github.com/hsbt/gem-rep... to resolve them.

Am I the only one that gets these "extensions are not built" warnings? They drive me up the wall. Why am I getting yelled at for gems I didn't require? 🫠

I don't think I've ever written software out of anger 😅

Bluesky's "popular with friends" tab is making a lot of assumptions about my human relationships

Went to the Ballard locks today

Lemons are growing so big these days
