The fastest way to fix something is to decide it's not a problem. Flaky test?. Is this test mission critical?.Has this test ever saved us from releasing a bug ever even once?.How much time does the team spend running it?.How long has that system been untouched?. Just delete it.

Had to buy the book after seeing @andatki's awesome talk at the last RailsConf! Was awesome to meet you!

Been using AI a lot more, but I just raw dogged some good old offline programming on the flight to RailsConf! Feels good to know I can easily acclimate back to working without AI.

if your network doesn’t have goals, your goal should be to get a new network.

My perspective on tech innovation like AI is that it's like road construction. Building a road is pretty slow, but driving on it super fast. Adopting AI is like driving. As always, you should be worried about if you're not driving anywhere.

You're chilling. You're feeling the vibe. Vibing. Then you start coding. Congrats, you're a vibe coder.

Took me a while to realize you can use "joins" and "includes" together to query by a joined table condition and have natural associations. You can eager load duplicates away to make it easier to work with:

One simple trick that I've been doing that I enjoy is added a few ordering helpers. Models rarely have more than one concept of ordering, and this always guides users away from specifying ordering other places. Let the composition flow

I think reading a book in public is the exact opposite signal as wearing headphones. Headphones say don’t talk to me, the other says feel free to interrupt me about this book.

It's too bad that you can't use the normal tailwind classes when sending an email. Or can you?. You can generate some ai slop to help your emails look like the rest of the app
