If Stranger Things happened in the 80s how are we only hearing about it now?

smh if Google would bother to put in the work, I feel they could get the GMail app to 1G by end of Q1. akr.am/blog/posts/w...

Here's a profile of running `bundle install` against the Gemfile in RubyGems.org. It's a "very cold" run, meaning I removed all caches and removed the Gemfile.lock: share.firefox.dev/4qKtRfL Trying to write a blog post about it, but struggling bc too much to write about 😭

First "you're muted" of the year 😌

Going back to work tomorrow and I can't wait to use the "feels like I haven't seen you since last year!" jokes. I am insufferable

Learning about LLMs makes me feel like an unk

Not to toot my own horn here, but I've been to the gym everyday this year

"64 ways to leave your lover"

Need to write a love song for programmers and call it "The Power of Two"

毎年紅白を見るけどどっちが白かどっちが赤か全然分からない。だから日本語能力試験を合格出来ないんだろうか😂

Couple of cat pics

I quit playing Dave the Diver because I didn't want the game to end and I was worried I was close to the end. Picked it up again a few days ago and seems like I've got lots of game left 😭😭😭🙃🙃

Development of Ruby 4.1.0 started ``` ruby 4.1.0dev (2025-12-26T00:31:28Z master 290fa0d8b4) +YJIT +MN +PRISM [arm64-darwin25] ```

Depending on your time zone there's only 6, 7 days left in the year!

Happy Holidays!

I don't know why but I keep getting sucked in to "people solving random math problems" videos on YouTube 😂

Bummer about this recipe is that it only makes one serving

Did some cat pics today

Made a cheesecake

Going live in about 15min! Please join if you have a chance!

Wish I had bought this book sooner. It's a vocabulary book, but uses sample phrases to help you memorize the words. Also the words and usages are very modern so it feels very helpful outside of studying for JLPT

I’m very honored and grateful. Rails has given me a lot, and giving back through open source has always felt like the natural response. Looking forward to continuing the work. ❤️ I wrote a short note on my blog: marcoroth.dev/posts/rails-...

I opened `Settings > Privacy & Security > Local Network`. I guess Chrome really wants access to my local network 🤷🏻‍♀️

Doing a live stream tomorrow with @searls.bsky.social! Join me if you've got time! (10am Pacific 18:00 UTC) youtube.com/live/YkMpfAn...

Hey! I'm very excited to announce! We've got a brand new Programming Ruby 4.0 out just in time for the upcoming release: pragprog.com/titles/ruby6... Obviously this is a beta release (written off of RC2), but there will be a second beta right on the heels of the release next week.

House lost power today so now I'm getting scolded by my ps5 for something I didn't do

RubyConf isn’t just a conference—it’s community-built. Our Program Committee thoughtfully shapes the talks that define RubyConf each year. Want to be part of it? Applications are open through December 22. Help shape the conversations guiding Ruby into 2026 + beyond. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Don't forget to get in your "see you next year!" jokes. Got my first one in this morning 😂

Enjoying a Nuka Cola Quantum

One thing I'm really excited about in Ruby 4.0 is that object allocation is going to get a nice speed boost

Winter solstice can't come soon enough. I'm getting real tired of these short days

Honestly yes. One of the best games I've played in my life. Of course it would be the French that perfect the JRPG 😂

Last but not least is @jakecard.bsky.social's pick: Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 🖌️ "My favorite video game story ever, amazing unique combat system, gorgeous art direction... any one of these aspects would make it noteworthy, but combined, it makes for one of my favorite games of all time."

We have a gas range, and my office is right next to the kitchen, so every time we cook something co2 in my office is 📈📈📈

Really bad traffic tonight. Was worried I wouldn't get home until like 6, 7

"Let's set up a meeting for this after the break"

I wonder why airplanes get so much pushback from the gate

Apparently you can't send the Unicode substitution character � on iMessages (try pasting the character in iMessage, it will strip the character when you send). I wonder what the meeting was like where they decided that

Glad to see mojibake in 2025 🥲

Really enjoying Dark Winds

JLPT day! 5th time's the charm! 😂 Honestly I'm kind of worried that if I passed I would quit studying

It's finally happening. I'm going to Brighton Ruby next June! ti.to/goodscary/br...

Exciting day for the humidity and pm2.5 graphs

I miss "back to my Mac"

RubyConf 2026 is headed to Las Vegas; off-Strip! We’ll be at Red Rock Casino Resort, surrounded by mountain views, quiet spaces to connect, and easy access to Red Rock Canyon. We chose it for the balance of convenience, nature, and room to recharge. More details soon!

I am very fast at clicking because I can merge a PR and click the "open PRs" tab and it's still there

I think the thing that used to make GitHub so compelling is that it was a product driven by engineers for other engineers

I’ve been frustrated with how we write and manage software for years now. Next week, @miren.dev’s vision of a better way begins!
