Had the pleasure of hosting a panel chat with @tenderlove, @hsbt, and @_byroot today at #RailsWorld in Amsterdam. They reflected on current challenges and the future of maintaining both Rails and Ruby tools we rely on. Thanks for having me!

Waking up in Amsterdam? Wishing you were? Either way, #RailsWorld is ON! To celebrate, all our Ruby/Rails/related titles are 40% off! Use code RailsWorld2025 at checkout (only direct from pragprog - link in 🧵) #RailsWorld2025 @rails #Rails

Convinced that pod coffee machines in hotels are there to just eat the pods…not to actually brew coffee OR I have zero idea how to use these things.

This must be a Tahoe feature? Seeing my @Delta flight details at a quick glance in the navbar is nice.

I love that people can sponsor as little or as much as they want to @ohmyzsh. ..and to be honest, the $1/mo cancellations tend to hit hardest. 😹

What's worse? Long layovers or long test suite runtimes? #RailsWorld

Fat Models, Gravy Controllers
Controllers don’t get messy. They get rich with business logic.

Easiest tell that I'm on a flight? You see me merging/closing out old PRs for @ohmyzsh.

Quick question—when you think of a former/current colleague who had a huge impact on improving your existing codebase…who do you think of? Think they’d have a great story to share on @_maintainable? Extra credit if they’re close to retirement. Feel free to DM me
