DHH is on the board of directors of Shopify, which is Ruby Central’s biggest sponsor Either she doesn’t know what she’s doing or she’s lying. Or both.

this is... profoundly disappointing :-/

excited to share that we are following through on our earlier commitments and putting together an independent+neutral organization to house the DID PLC system, includes the directory service

So glad the US government will spend millions to fund an ahistorical construction of "Judeo-Christian civilization," but we can't spend a fraction of that to support klezmer music archives, Yiddish women's writing, Ukrainian Jewish poetry, or Soviet Holocaust literature. www.jta.org/2025/09/17/u...

If you have a Ruby Central membership, please consider cancelling it and investing in Ruby conferences and gem maintainers instead.

oof, what a disappointing way to end more than 15 years of open source work. (summary by @duckinator.bsky.social at pup-e.com/goodbye-ruby...). good luck to the remaining RubyGems team, and it’s time to focus my energy on new projects that I’m truly excited about, like rv.dev

i've never gotten a chance to get into raku, but every time i see it, it does feel like someone really just does feel like perl with extra perl-y-ness (lauditory)

Dannel Jurado (@demarko.org) presents "What you get when you finally form a union in tech: Kickstarter United 5 years on"

"Our product's better in the mobile app!" skill issue? sounds like you need to staff up your mobile webdev team then. don't see how that's *my* problem. (90% of the time what this *really* means is "if you install the app, we can hoover up more of your personal information")

Here's another good'un. (Performed here: youtu.be/MGSdYFR50Y8)

in addition: יצחק שמו may he be forgotten, may he die the final death of being completely forgotten as an unremarkable man, may his ultimate legacy be nothing.

I have a lot, but think about this one often

this is the GOAT tumblr post and always will be

spoilers: it appears to have been a bad dhcp lease on their part. i got my /60 back after $LEASETIME (3d) was up 🙃

the fundament nature of cooking:

did u know! ld.so silently ignores `$ORIGIN` in DT_RUNPATH if the binary in question is setuid. this is documented nowhere but the relevant lines of source code for ld.so. there's an entire section on suid behavior in ld.so(8) and it does not mention this at all. i love gnu software 🙃

what the fuck is wrong with gavin newsom like... what does he actually hope to accomplish with this?

me: hey so, a couple days ago i stopped getting ipv6 pd -- it'll only hand me a /128. here's tcpdump of the dhcpv6 handshake. comcast tech support: have you tried releasing/renewing your ip? me: ... can i talk to someone that knows what dhcp is?

Video games should not respect time. They should exist entirely perpendicular to the fourth dimension. Video games should be frozen crystals of potential events the player experiences all in one instant. Video games should be written in Haskell so that playing them does not have any side effects

I think about this interview constantly. teletype.in/@kati_lilian...

I feel so bad that Iori Miyazawa described the "Yuri of absence" and every english speaker was like this man is insane, a madman, truly on another level. Nobody is doing it like him. And that does not translate very well that these are compliments of the highest order and we gave him anxiety.

need to find/write a "falsehoods (mostly cishet) programmers/pms believe about families" article :-/
