so much happens

Herb continues to enable incredible advances in the developer experience of html+erb thanks to @marcoroth.dev's work. There was a spontaneous round of applause for the new error page of ReActionView. Even as I was getting my mic, I was on tiptoe trying to see what the latest is. reactionview.dev

The Cloudflare outage is a good reminder that: - Configuration is Code. - There will always be bugs but companies who publish good post mortems help make the entire industry better.

Some highlights:

RubyGems/Bundler 4.0.0.beta1 is out now! github.com/ruby/rubygem... github.com/ruby/rubygem... You can try that with `gem i bundler --pre` and regenerate lockfile or update your lockfile with `4.0.0.beta1` at `BUNDLED WITH` section. I welcome your feedback for next major release.

We just got a new batch of passports. These are going out to @sfruby.com, Paris, Krakow, Belfast, Vienna, and Zagreb.

If you're in Europe and have FOMO because you can't attend the amazing @sfruby.bsky.social, there's another conference happening over here in Helsinki 🇫🇮at the same time 😊 helsinkiruby.fi/tinyruby/ from @helsinkiruby.fi - the line-up is great and Mochi will be attending 🐶🐾❤️It's going to be very nice!

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.

Major FOMO today. I wish I could have been at Ruby World. And SF Ruby Conf to see @inazarova.bsky.social vision come to life. And RubyCon Italy. So many great Ruby events around the world this year!

Made my first Ruby open source PR with the help of @tompng.bsky.social & @hayat01sh1da.bsky.social at #RubyWorld! 🎉

Debug technique I use in some occasions: Define global variable $foo where you collect stuff, maybe in different places. Then, at_exit { pp $foo }.

Hello, friends! After 10(!) years of #AdventOfCode, I've made some changes to preserve my sanity: there will be 12 days of puzzles each December (still starting Dec 1) and there is no longer a global leaderboard. Read more: adventofcode.com/2025/about#f... adventofcode.com/2025/about#f...

🚩🚩 Red flags aren’t just for dating apps. @fastruby.io's @etagwerker.bsky.social shares what they’ve learned spotting them in legacy Rails projects over on @planetargon.com blog. blog.planetargon.com/blog/entries...

Ruby Gems and Bundler will be moved into the Ruby organization. * Ruby Core and Ruby Central will be managing it together * No changes to license, IP, or copyright * rubygems.org operated by Ruby Central www.ruby-lang.org/en/news/2025... rubycentral.org/news/ruby-ce...

🌈 Passport update: We're working hard to making more of them and send them to conference and meetup organizers.

🎉 Incredibly honored to be a Ruby Prize 2025 finalist! Thank you to everyone who has supported my work on IRB, RDoc, debug, ZJIT, and other Ruby projects. See you in Matsue! rubyprize.jp

Additionally to collecting stamps in your physical @therubypassport.com, you can now also collect and see these stamps on @rubyevents.org!

Went to @xoruby.com in Portland, and it was a blast! If you get a chance to go when it's near you, I highly recommend it!

We now show a new "Mutual Events" tab when viewing an other person's @rubyevents.org profile! Thanks to @chaelcodes.bsky.social for this great contribution!

During Hacktoberfest, I normally like to explore, push myself, and contribute to other people's projects. Today on stream, we added a "Mutual Events" tab to a profile on RubyEvents.org, so you can see which events you and someone else are both attending!! Super special thanks to @marcoroth.dev. ✨

I had three people from Brazil on a call recently because they wanted to start contributing to Puma but were unsure of where to start. This is something I've done for years and I've always loved it. We sometimes get really important new contributors from these convos.

So many people pull the ladder up after them and you just don’t have to do that!

Ruby 3.4.7 Released ruby-lang.org/en/news/2025... This release contains a uri gem update for CVE-2025-61594, along with other bug fixes. We recommend updating your uri gem version. This release has been made for the convenience of those who wish to continue using it as a default gem.

The canonical repository of Ruby is attacked by DDoS from last friday night. I disabled http and https UI for that now. Fortunately, SSH operation is normal status.

youtube.com/shorts/sCtPr... Meet the new and ambitious Ruby & YC startups at the SF Ruby conference already on Nov 19-21, and let’s build the future in Ruby, together! We pushed the price down to $350, which means you get the tickets for $300 till October 6 with code SEP29OCT6. sfruby.com

Harassing people’s families over “ethics in open source” is literally Gamergate shit. What the fuck is the world coming to when white men are harassing black women for insufficient defense of DEI? Look at yourselves.

Here's a coupon for $50 off the admission fee for SF Ruby (sfruby.com) luma.com/sfrubyconf20... I'll be doing a workshop on Dynamic Ruby, and even if you don't want to see that, there is a full slate of great speakers -- I'd love to see you there.

This is a big deal. Ruby Central is running this service and if they fail to do so, it will have dire consequences that far eclipse the minor spat. I speak for many when I say we need to get Ruby Central healthy. Them failing is threat to the whole Ruby community.

Focus on your own lane right now. Be the person you want to see in the world.

It’s Friday night. I’ve done enough this week. You’ve done enough this week.

A thought: many people discuss and give opinions on topics they know nothing about, all over the place, sometimes using false, easily refutable facts because of their ignorance about the subject. It’s ok (sometimes best) to ignore them.

If candidates are cheating your interview process by using AI, the solution is not to quiz them on computer science topics. It's to pair with them and watch them cook! If they can cheat with AI better than you can, hire them.

The Ruby extension v0.7.1 for @zed.dev has been released. This release improves the initial DX by introducing a new LS activation sequence: `Gemfile` -> `PATH` -> User gemset -> Own version (check docs) Also, the Ruby extension has been installed over 100k times. That is insane! Thank you all!
