Ruby Central has opened board applications for next year: rubycentral.teamtailor.com/jobs/6723164... I’ll be rolling off the board to have another baby and stuff, so I’d really love if you’d apply and/or share this with anyone who’s interested in being involved.

Yesterday I found myself thinking "wow, for the first time in almost a year, I don't have a podcast guest/episode to announce tomorrow." That's a very strange feeling. But then I had a conversation with Marty and it turns out I do have a podcast guest to announce after all. Hurray!

The final episode of the Ode to RailsConf podcast is now live. I've loved having this opportunity to talk to so many interesting people about why they love Ruby and the Ruby community. www.odetorailsconf.com/2363110/epis...

Thanks so much, Anton! When I started this podcast I honestly wasn’t sure if anyone else would care or listen. I was just doing it for me. But it makes me extra happy to know that it’s had an impact on other people in this community that I love.

Alan and Fito are so much fun to talk to and listen to, so you should absolutely give this a listen.

This next episode of The Ode to RailsConf podcast was a rough one to record because it's also the final episode.

@joemasilotti.com is building the #RubyFriends app, rubyfriends.app. Coming home from #RailsConf I'm already missing all my Ruby Friends, so of course I made a profile already: rubyfriends.app/profiles/AETC

The latest episode of the Ode to RailsConf podcast is up! @drbragg.dev , Stephanie Minn, and @excid3.com joined me for a panel discussion at RailsConf 2025. It was a blast getting to share the stage with them and just chat about things. www.odetorailsconf.com/2363110/epis...

The next episode of the Ode to RailsConf podcast will be the recording of the Ruby Podcast Panel from #RailsConf this week, featuring myself, @drbragg.dev, @excid3.com, and Stephanie Minn. I don't know if it'll be up Monday morning or not, it all depends on when I get the file back from the editor.

It feels a little silly, but every time I get a new Brandon Sanderson book, I want to show off my collection/Sandershelf

And that’s it. #RailsConf is officially over. So grateful to Ruby Central for giving us this last event. I’m still trying to gather my thoughts and sort through all of my emotions here. Ultimately I feel like RailsConf went out on a high note and gave us a lot to take home

I haven’t taken anywhere near as many selfies with people as I wish I had at #RailsConf …but it’s a start

I’ve got a new podcast with @mghaught.bsky.social ! We’re exploring the stories behind the code, starting with how RailsConf and Ruby Central began. Give it a listen!

Getting ready to head to Philadelphia for RailsConf! Can’t wait to see everyone there! If you need something to listen to while traveling, check out today’s episode of Ode to RailsConf, with my guest Joe Leo! www.odetorailsconf.com/2363110/epis...

#RailsConf is next week, and I have a new episode of the podcast releasing Monday morning. Maybe it's something you could listen to while traveling? Joe Leo joins me to talk about his history with Ruby conferences, and what brought him back to Ruby after some time away.

@rhiannon.io asked me to put together a highlight reel of the podcast to share way RailsConf is like. So I also wrote up a little post describing why I chose the six episodes I put on the playlist: davidhill.dev/posts/railsc...

The weather this time of year in Philly generally changes a lot day to day so take the forecast for #RailsConf with a grain of salt. Here's my suggestions for anyone traveling from outside the east coast:

Marco Roth ( @marcoroth.dev ) is my guest on today's episode of the Ode to RailsConf podcast. We chat about his crazy travel schedule for conferences all over the world, and about his fantastic open source contributions. Give it a listen! www.odetorailsconf.com/2363110/epis...

#RailsConf is coming up fast, so we're coming up on the final episodes of this podcast. Marco Roth (@marcoroth.dev) joins me on Monday to talk about RailsConf, his crazy conference schedule, and all the cool open source stuff he's working on.

There's a new episode of the Ode to RailsConf podcast up this morning, with Alan Ridlehoover ( @alan.codegardener.com ) as my latest guest. It's probably one of my most personal episodes given the impact that Alan had on me at RubyConf back in November. www.odetorailsconf.com/2363110/epis...

My next guest on the podcast is Alan Ridlehoover ( @alan.codegardener.com ). I met Alan at RubyConf this past November, and it was because of him that I had a truly amazing final night at that Conference. I hope you'll listen and hear all about it, Monday morning!

Isles of the Emberdark is going to ship slightly early! Hurray! Bare minimum I’ll be able to read the ebook on my way up to Philly for #RailsConf!

Had a great chat with Irina Nazarova ( @inazarova.bsky.social ) from @evilmartians.com, on the latest episode! We dive into RailsConf, but also explore what’s next—like the importance of local meetups and Irina launching the San Francisco Ruby Conference. www.odetorailsconf.com/2363110/epis...

And last but not least for today's announcement.. @tonsoffun.bsky.social‬, Creator of ActiveAgents.ai! But these are NOT ALL of the projects you'll see represented at #RailsConf Hack Spaces! We'll be sharing more on Monday. 👀 You can also find more here: buff.ly/xJSPtZM

If you're excited for Kasper's #RailsConf talk but can't wait til July to learn all about reading Rails source code, you can join his virtual event on Active Record next week! 👇

AND @flavorjon.es‬, Maintainer of #SQLite Ruby!

I can’t wait for this! And the people I’ll be sharing the space with 🤩 I’m super lucky. I hope I can work on shading and multi-tenancy stuff mostly, but I’ll be happy to pair on anything 💪🏻💪🏻

My next guest on the Ode to RailsConf podcast is @inazarova.bsky.social from @evilmartians.com! We talk about her experience giving a memorable keynote at RailsConf, running a local meetup, and starting a new conference: San Francisco Ruby. New episode drops Monday morning!
