Nice video about the Don Valley MTB trails in Toronto. www.youtube.com/watch?v=qfnA...

When using Claude Code to write Ruby, I often see it adding `puts` calls to investigate failures. I wonder if it could be taught to use ruby/debug to set breakpoints and explore interactively. 🤔

@stoppodcasting.bsky.social it would be amazing if you could have fellow Vancouverite @helenzaltzman.bsky.social as a guest sometime

The built-in agent prompts for @zed.dev are an interesting read: zed.dev/leaked-prompts

Joe Leo and I have officially launched a very special first episode of The Ruby AI Podcast: "Beyond Chat: Phoenix Tests, Ruby Agents & the AI Tipping Point" In the pilot episode, we chat about shipping real AI products in Ruby and how Phoenix got started. www.therubyaipodcast.com

The Pinkpop music festival is sharing some great performances from their archive:

I'm giving a talk at Toronto Ruby next week on Exploring the Ruby AI ecosystem lu.ma/i00pdbmp

It's great to see the official launch of Agentic Editing in Zed. I've been using the beta for the past few weeks, and it's been very impressive.

A bunch of tech CEOs are talking about being “AI-first”, the latest in a series of CEO fads like “return to office”, “founder mode” and “pivot to full fascism”. This one’s weird, though, because it only makes sense if… none of their workers are great at their jobs. anildash.com/2025/04/19/a...

Just released the Ruby extension v0.5.6 for @zed.dev, packed with goodies and fixes contributed by the community. This is so awesome! Thank you all! github.com/zed-extensio...

I've been really enjoying Meteor recently as background music while reading or coding. Synthwave/darksynth with no vocals: open.spotify.com/artist/3A4fN...

Looking forward to these gigs in Toronto over the next few months!

Look at this fantastic speaker lineup for @brightonruby.com in June. I am such a fan of @andycroll.bsky.social! brightonruby.com

I don't play many video games but I bought RoboCop: Rogue City and loved it. Such a great tribute to the first two movies. I'm looking forward to the Unfinished Business expansion coming out later this year. www.youtube.com/watch?v=AjUA...

It's been like 2 years since I last wrote anything about debugging in Ruby, so here's a list of suggestions I'd give in 2025. st0012.dev/my-ruby-debu...

I did a thing. If you know a Rubyist or Ruby-friendly person near Belfast, let them know. Our goal is to reach the heights @inazarova.bsky.social has achieved with SFRuby 😅 www.meetup.com/belfastruby/...

I converted ruby-lsp-rails to use the new experimental RBS syntax for inline signatures: github.com/Shopify/ruby... (see the commit list for the steps)

There’s a petition to the Canadian Parliament to get the Government of Canada off Xitter: www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en... I think every Canadian who’s on Fedi or Bluesky should sign this now, no exceptions. If you have Canadian followers, please repost this or just post it yourself. This matters.

Ontario votes this Thursday, February 27th. Wasting taxpayer money to tear out safe bike lanes is reckless and dangerous. On election day, send a strong message: no city has ever solved congestion by prioritizing cars—bike lanes should remain a municipal decision.

Had some time to wrap up some features on ruby-lsp.nvim. New features include auto-detection of standard/rubocop (opt-in), and a command to update the Ruby LSP. github.com/adam12/ruby-...

I recently posted a video on Reddit and it was picked up by CTV News: toronto.ctvnews.ca/biking-advoc...

I donated to help the fight to save bike lanes and resist Bill 212 #toronto www.cycleto.ca/donate @cycletoronto.bsky.social
