OMG, I just had to hide email, notifications from the RoR reddit. Ya'll need to get over DHH and get on with your lives.

We’ve seen this movie before.

Came out of Rails World more fired up than I've been in years. Unforgettable moments in every sense of the word. You see there's a reason all my classic Ruby books were published in the "Professional Ruby Series". Most of us work in teams. We maintain serious production systems that real customers depend on, under real load, with real consequences if we fuck them up by being sloppy. So pencils down? Sure. Claude writes all my code too. But programming as an engineering profession is as alive as its ever been, as it moves up an abstraction level. And English alone isn't enough. We're living through a period of infinite configuration. Everyone has their own agent setup. That's why convention over configuration matters more than it ever has, the same reason Ruby on Rails was such a game changer to begin with. I have a new vision for those of us who want to embrace AI while still proudly calling ourselves programmers. If you were at #railsworld this year, I might have even discussed it with you. And I promise, I'm going to make it reality. Who's with me?

"Man, fuck your brain” 🤣😂😍

As advertised. Just did the @OmarchyLinux install on a 2014 Mac and took just a little over two minutes.

This is the exact stance we took at 37signals back in 2021, and it's still the correct one. Work is a terrible place to litigate societal/political questions unrelated to the business with coworkers. "Do it outside" is also the Omarchy way now. Love that Jensen is affirming it 🤘

A.I. has made college one big robot circle-jerk where students use A.I. to write papers and professors use A.I. to grade them.

Anthropic pays $750,000+ a year for engineers who know how to build LLMs from scratch. Stanford just released the exact lecture that teaches it - 1 hour 44 minutes, free, straight from CS229. Bookmark and watch it this weekend. It'll teach you more about how ChatGPT & Claude actually work than most people at top AI companies learn in their entire careers.

Hey, random question, but…what are you doing April 30 and May 1? 👀

F#$K!!! Created a Chatgpt Business account for my organization and "migrated" my account over and now none my previous chats or project are there @OpenAI Fix this!!!

Married couples need to budget their money together. You’re married, you’re not roommates. Money shouldn’t be a “me” thing, it should be a “we” thing.

At one point, I thought we were all doomed to suffer the woke theocracy for decades in tech, but then suddenly it was over. There are niche pockets here and there (hello nix!), but the hegemony has ended. What a relief! Now "no, we are not doing that" is again a viable way.

Appreciate @SenThomTillis making a principled vote. I’ll remember that in 2026.

AI makes me laugh

I have a Ruby on Rails side gig if anyone is interested. Probably 10 hrs/week for the first few weeks, then a few hours a month after that. DM me.
