If you are anywhere near SF Ruby Conf and haven't bought a ticket yet, the time is now! This conf is gonna be 🔥🔥🔥

🪩⚠️ Alert: @sfruby.com is in 10 days ! ! ! What's inside: 💎 two dozen new and hot Ruby startups like @bolt.new 💎 authors of RubyLLM, Herb, Active Agent, Inertia Rails, ZJIT, and more 💎engineers scaling Ruby and Rails at Chime, Cisco, Intercom, Shopify 💎afterparty by GitButler 🪩 (see part 2)

It started when I interviewed 20 Ruby startup founders last year. Gave a keynote (!) at RailsConf. Launched SF Ruby meetup. Now it's coming together: the missing open source (AI, frontend), Ruby startups, Ruby devs. Learning from each other. Building the future. Together. In Ruby. At @sfruby.com

It's so nice to see open Avo apps. I love how @palkan_tula implemented the filter and actions inline with the resource. Also cool to watch @paolino's RubyLLM in the wild too. github.com/evilmartian... github.com/evilmartian...

Events should be fun to promote! That's what I thought when we started what became SF Ruby Clouds: cute personal invites for every conference attendee to have fun sharing them and spreading the word about the event. We're open-sourcing this project today! github.com/evilmartians...

Huge thanks to the @evilmartians.com team and @inazarova.bsky.social in particular for organizing the SF Ruby Conf. Kudos to the sponsors: Chime, @bolt.new, Cisco, gusto, @temporal.io, @scoutmonitoring.bsky.social, @planetargon.com, @hackclub.com, @gitbutler.com, and others. sfruby.com.

❤️❤️❤️❤️♥️

Heading back to SF next month for sfruby.com. @planetargon.com is sponsoring, and I’m hoping to meet teams giving their software a second act. Thanks to @inazarova.bsky.social and the @evilmartians.com crew for the Cloud Card of me. Tickets and details → sfruby.com

It was fun to create a cloud card. Join us at @sfruby.com next month! bsky.app/profile/inaz...

Ok, that's pretty fun. Also, I *wish* I had eyebrows that thick. 🥲

These cloud cards are such a cool idea! Join us at @sfruby.com next month!

Rails "DIYstack" (kamal, hetzner, etc) hasn't yet solved reliability and trust for the data layer. People running a business on Rails want backups, push-button recovery, zero-config HA (like Heroku PG premium). You can do a managed DB but you're stuck on hyperscalers then.

Yeah! Join Aurelie at sfruby.com ! But like do it NOW because prices go up on Thursday! 😱

Join us in the Clouds! sfruby.com November 19-21 is going to be legendary as we organize the first Ruby conference in the Bay Area since 2014.

Ownership of the RubyGems and Bundler repositories has officially moved to the Ruby core team. Ruby Central will continue to collaborate closely on management, governance, and development while operating rubygems.org for the community. Read more here: rubycentral.org/news/ruby-ce...

Come to SF Ruby Conference!! This is the first edition, and it's going to be an incredible event!

Copped my ticket 😎

Lovely words from @inazarova.bsky.social at tonight’s #SFRuby ❤️

The benefits of being a grown-up: I can buy a sparkly maple syrup!!

jeez

Lol. You've quoted Rafael about `rv` but conveniently left out the post right under it where he explain the whole pay-to-play situation. You also mention you've worked at Shopify, but conveniently leave out how it ended, and how you spent years having regular tantrums about it on socials.

Here's a write-up of @xoruby Atlanta! This was such a fun and cool event! www.chael.codes/blog/2025/09...

I agree and even more so: what if the problem is us, the Ruby community, not contributing to our key nonprofit enough? We did not have ownership because we didn’t show up, and RC ended up being squeezed by a big donor because they did not have enough sponsors, stability and support.

Wrote about #ruby Ractors and how they work + why they exist. This is the next post in the Ruby concurrency/performance series. I'm sending these as part of my newsletter. A beginner friendly primer (defining process, thread, concurrency, parallelism, Ruby GVL) theleafnode.com/ruby-web-ser...

frankly the community IMO needs to turn this into a call for better diversified funding and governance for rubycentral stuff, but not a burn down of everything. that’s just going to hurt us all. i have so many thoughts on this and how i personally feel at some decisions.

The topic and description for my workshop at SF Ruby, “The Dynamic Ruby Toolkit” is now up sfruby.com/schedule/#dy.... Come join everybody there — looks like a great program. And sign up for the workshop!

After listening to about a dozen first-hand accounts, I’ve published what I know about the RubyGems takeover.

So excited for this talk!!

We’re going to be at SF Ruby to show the latest and greatest updates we brought to Avo. Who’s going to be there?

Friends, tickets for the San Francisco Ruby conference are on sale and available. Grab yours, and I’ll see you with 600 Ruby friends and dozens of Ruby startups to pave the bright future for Ruby and Rails together on November 19-21! sfruby.com

Working on my real-time talk for #SFRuby conf, I think it'll be a good one! Real-time collaboration in Lexxy anyone?

Euruko vibes → next stop: SF Ruby Conf 🚀💎 See you there, Ruby friends! ❤️ #HeartOfCode #Ruby
