Unfinished migration from Rails to Go/Kotlin/TypeScript microservices - a very typical situation nowadays. Merging microservices back to Rails is often the right thing to do. Adding more network calls rarely solves a problem with a big Rails app.
At a past company, the head of engineering and the principal engineers decided to break our Ruby on Rails application into a Go microservices mesh. They created very detailed design documents and architecture diagrams. They went all out and used Kubernetes, gRPC, service…

Loops are for cowards
Some people merge. Some rebase. But I prefer to cherry-pick my battles.
Since it is Cyber Security Awareness month, it might be a good idea to watch my Rails World talk about The state of security in Rails 8. youtube.com/watch?v=Z3DgOi…

If it doesn’t matter, then why make me do it at all?
I don't know who needs to hear this, but you don't need a Microsoft account to run Windows. You do need a Microsoft burner account to set up the FIRST account during setup, same as MacOS. After that, set up all the local accounts you like. It's what I do. Total time delta: 3…

If you're running a process that people want to hack, and you're not actively measuring attempts to hack it, it's being hacked.
Today’s plan: we need to fix everything without changing anything
The momentum of the Rails renaissance is incredible. SF Ruby is leading that charge right where it all started. We’ll be there showing off all the new work we’ve been preparing for everyone with a focus on enterprise and Rails at scale. You can’t and shouldn’t miss it 🙌
And here are my thoughts while being at @ycombinator yesterday! With all the sponsor support we could now lower the price a bit and with the coupon SEP29OCT6 you can get a ticket for $350 for a few more days! sfruby.com
How to become a great @NFL quarterback: 1. Start the season as the @49ers backup. 2. Show up when QB1 gets injured. #49ersfaithful
I want to believe this. I want it to be true. But, at this point, I think it's more aspirational than reality. We have a class of people using agentic coding who understand specs and design patterns and use agents to accelerate. We have another group of people who don't…

Do it.

A lot of people don’t know this but @ScoutAPM was a huge part of the success of Flexcar’s rewrite in Rails. Love these folks.
A solid free tier with errors, logs, and performance data, and now an MCP server, so your AI code assistant can access your application data. Don't sleep on Scout, we are doing cool stuff over here!
Did you know that we at Evil Martians are organizing a Ruby conference in San Francisco this November? 👉 sfruby.com Now you do, and you know what to do next :)
How I have been able to be so successful, so far… Operate from a place of genuine curiosity when you're talking to people. Assume you're always auditioning for a bigger role. Give before you take. Find a way to air your weirdness, like a blog, social media, or a newsletter.…
