Important Balatro update from me: got to Ante 14 last night!!

How is it not iPhone 26????

Ayyy, an entire summer (and then some) went by, and Friends! With code. didn't even hang out once. We miss each other, so come hang with @pav.vin, @jonallured.com, and I as we take turns giving summer reports to start the school year. www.youtube.com/live/tGxbsQA...

Or, just spitballing here. Universal preK, tax credits for kids, basic food allowance, and medical coverage for pregnancy. (Ie all cut in the budget that was just passed.)

Congrats @orta.io the Puzzmo app is great!! 🤩

software development is: you upgrade to latest version of Git, 30min later you find tmux is no longer working, after a bit of sleuthing it seems likely a shared dep was clobbered, you upgrade tmux, it's now half working, you have 7 new tabs open, forget what you were doing in the first place, repeat

Really enjoying reading this reflection from @pepopowitz.bsky.social and can confirm he is an EXPERT at breaking down work into smaller pieces which is an essential skill for being successful in software engineering. www.stevenhicks.me/blog/2025/04...

Just published: "The One-Person Framework in practice: how I built a seven-figure business with Rails" 🚀 Any other solo Rails builders out there? bramjetten.dev/articles/the...

Do you have a list of the RSS feeds you like to keep tabs on? Be like Jon and share it with me (and the world).

I just made my 80th screenshot with CleanShot X thanks to a recommendation from @jwworth.bsky.social - it's really good software and a joy to use!! cleanshot.com

Just one quick question if I may

Finally don't forget that at-2RadDads is now at-FriendsWithCode! www.youtube.com/@FriendsWith.... Check out last week's Dev Show & Tell, where we learned about... - XCode & iOS dev from @jonallured.com! - lake-effect snow from @jpotts244.bsky.social! - Greeklish & Greek from @pav.vin!

Hey man sorry to hear about all your political turmoil. Would it help if I scrolled around on the computer all day and drove myself insane?

The people who think they are good at everything because they are good at coding are also bad at coding.

Just released Braze Ruby v0.11.0! github.com/jonallured/b...

Write good PR descriptions, even if nobody is reading them. Do it for you.

The wildest thing about parenting are phases where it's so hard, and nothing you're doing works. And then...they just end and you forget how hard it was.

DUDE!!

Big news! While 2 Rad Dads will continue, @jonallured.com and I decided we want more friends to hang with us. So the 2RadDads channel is now FriendsWithCode, and we're getting our friends @pav.vin and @jpotts244.bsky.social involved! www.youtube.com/@friendswith...

I am eat-a-tums-before-bed-just-in-case years old as of last night! 🎉

I’m down to 4 more Wheel of Time books. My goal is for 2025 to be the year I finish this fucking series.

I just had to look up a status code and I figured it's a good time to remind people that I made this: httbey.com

In a few short hours…..grab a bev and come hang with us I miss your face!!

Maybe health care shouldn’t make money?

Finished Frictionless Generators by @garrettdimon.com and really enjoyed it! I went from "I know most of what there is to know about Rails generators" to "Wow I do not know most of what there is to know about Rails generators" and then back again because he filled in the gaps so well! generators.dev

OO langs already have a "pipe operator", it is the dot: str.downcase.split You are passing along the implicit self, just like functional langs pass the left expression as the first argument, which plays a similar role in practice in both cases (it is "the subject").

Hey @garrettdimon.com started reading generators.dev and loving it but when it came to testing I saw that the book is aimed at minitest. There's a few notes and mentions around using Thoughtbot's Suspenders project as inspiration but.....I think they switched to minitest. 😬 Am I missing something??

Do you like "okay" better than "ok" or do you agree that "ok" is better than "okay" please respond.

This is about to happen - you should come hang and be our second ever live viewer!!

Going live with super cool guy @jonallured.com in a few hours, if you want to hang: www.youtube.com/watch?v=u1T4... Gonna try to bend raycast's extension framework to my very specific whims. And probably cry about how I wrecked my Spotify wrapped.

Hello friends! I’m Jake, a software engineer working remotely from Maine. My mission is to empower and propel growing businesses with thoughtful, high-quality software solutions. I write at jakeworth.com and buttondown.com/defragmenter. Check them out, and looking forward to conversations here!

“Easy is my favorite kind of peasy” Joke from a kids show that got me and I’m not even mad.

Is there anything more terrifying than receiving an email from HR containing the phrase “Open Enrollment Ending Soon” I might die.

cop: can you pass a drug test me: oh fuck yeah i know all the drugs cop: [into shoulder mic] this dude is cool as hell, i repeat, this dude is cool as hell

About to go live with @pepopowitz.bsky.social - you should come hang! www.youtube.com/watch?v=MQPI...

My friend Steve is very cool ❤️

🚀 And we have a Hashrocket starter pack! Excited to find old and new friends and colleagues here. go.bsky.app/ArMALD4

How does Braze Ruby allocate objects? Read and follow along with how I proved to myself that the gem is making too many objects.

It is deeply irresponsible and downright repugnant that news outlets keep saying "witnessed having sex with a minor". It's statutory. It's rape. Not calling it such makes things more dangerous for minors and proliferates rape culture.

Hey @joshuawood.net I'm trying to add somebody new to Bluesky to a starter pack and they aren't showing up even though I'm following them. I think I remember you describing this same exact situation - did you ever figure out why it happens??

Just released Braze Ruby v0.10.0! github.com/jonallured/b...

I met a scholar yesterday at #RubyConf. In addition to their praise of the Scholar & Guides program they said: “I just want to be a part of this community.” I replied “You are. You’re here.” All too often we create narratives or obstacles in our heads that inhibit us. Be curious and engage. ❤️

Wow I can’t believe @joshuadavey.com is on here now!!

This guy’s great please follow him so he stays!! 🤣

Parent teacher conference tonight. Some things truly don’t stop. I have so much respect for these teachers working during an objectively taxing week.
