One last change before I ship @telebugs.com: project cards no longer show reoccurred and unique error counts. They turned into a resource hog on large projects, and I want Telebugs to stay snappy (~150 ms response time). On the index view, what really matters is comparing error volumes.

🚨 @telebugs.com 1.8.0 drops tomorrow! This is the most packed release since day one. It took *a lot* of sweat 💧

Life of a Rails developer is full of ups and downs

Code runs fast if you write nothing. Speed isn't the goal. Impact is. Engineer with intention, not hurry.

[email protected] relies on Solid Queue for job processing. It’s a great library, but I made a big mistake. As an early adopter (jumped on it the day it launched), I got burned by a misconfiguration: Telebugs never cleaned up finished jobs.

fun fact: the "s" in npm stands for “secure”

I’ve decided to postpone the @telebugs.com release until next week. This week I uncovered some important issues with data truncation that need to be fixed before shipping. I’ll share more details as I make progress.

One last tweak in @telebugs.com before wrapping up: copying now updates both the icon *and* the button text, so there’s no doubt it worked.

Exactly why I built @telebugs.com. Error tracking has the same problem.

I’m working on the final major feature of @telebugs.com 1.8.0: wide view. With the new Error and Report dashboards, it makes sense to let the dashboard breathe. Still, not everyone may prefer it, so wide view will be configurable per user. Work in progress!

First Telebugs guest post by @seuross, author of gems used by thousands 👏 Lapsoss is a vendor-neutral error tracker adapter: send errors to Telebugs, AppSignal, BugSnag, or any provider. Rails 7+, zero boilerplate, fully compatible with @telebugs.com. telebugs.com/blog/introdu...

My Logitech MX Anywhere 3 has a left-click issue where it sometimes doesn’t register unless I press hard. I applied WD-40, hoping to avoid buying a new mouse. Let’s see how long it holds 🤞

I completely slept through this, but it turns out I’ve been getting a lot of traffic because someone posted an article of mine on Hacker News!

Just wrapped up Doom episode 4, and with that, Doom itself! What’s next? Is that even a question haha? Doom II, of course!

Don’t want to sound like a broken record, but I’m keeping it real with you. @telebugs.com is dropping this week, and this is your last chance to lock it in at $299. If you care about keeping your apps stable, that’s basically nothing. The checkout page is already updated to reflect the price hike.

Trying out a new feature in Rails 8.1.0.beta1 for @telebugs.com! Markdown rendering landed a few weeks ago, and it's perfect timing to power Telebugs' first AI feature. Soon you’ll be able to view any error report as Markdown and feed it to your LLM (copy-paste for now).

The next @telebugs.com release brings brand-new dashboards: - All Errors - All Reports Each dashboard comes with handy filters: - Filter by project - Date range (with a nice HTML date picker!) Results are paginated with cursors, giving O(1) page fetches even with millions of records.

I’m experimenting with another @telebugs.com dashboard: Report Overview. The upcoming release will include two dashboards: - Projects Overview — the one we’ve always had. - Error Overview — the new one (screenshot).

Pricing dichotomy: $9 → savvy strategist $9.99 → sleazy schemer

Gotta give mad props to @seuros for shaking up the Rails error tracking game. He’s building Lapsoss - a vendor-agnostic library for error tracking. Think ActiveJob, but for errors. Switching from Sentry to Honeybadger? With Lapsoss, just change the adapter, the API stays the same.

This is one of those cases where the code is trivial, but the feel of the feature takes all the thought. I wasn’t happy with how the current Error Ownership UI in @telebugs.com felt, so I spent last night (and part of this morning) thinking it through more carefully.

Error ownership in @telebugs.com in action (still in development):

In @telebugs.com, you won’t "assign" errors - you'll own them. The word "assign" in the software world carries a lot of managerial baggage. Telebugs is free of that. It's a developer-first product and developers mess up. And when you mess up, you own your mess. bsky.app/profile/kyry...

AI wrappers in a nutshell 👇

🏗️ I'm kicking off the Error Ownership feature in @telebugs.com. Right now, if you’re on a team, you have no idea who’s working on an error. You end up talking it out, then just... remembering. That’s wasted brainpower.
