I teased this a couple days ago, but now I'm ready to share the Ashevillagers project for @blueridgeruby (inspired by the @sfrubyconf Clouds app). @midnightmonster kindly volunteered to take on this project! 🙏 Here's our *actual* kickoff call. 😄

Call with @jeremysmithco this morning about a surprise-and-delight project for @blueridgeruby. To be built in public, which does limit the surprise—but hopefully it's a full dose of delight.
RailsConf 2025 (final RailsConf! 😭) early bird tickets are on sale! I got mine. Hope to see you there. railsconf.org
Do you know any good Rails or JS devs (any experience level) interested in working on a very small team building new apps to make the litigation process smoother for people injured by big companies?

Pushed version 0.5 of my activerecord-summarize gem for transparently combining many reporting queries into one fast query. This release improves documentation and adds a quality-of-life convenience for working with ChainableResult.

I just offered to be a mentor to an entry level developer. Maybe you should, too. firstrubyfriend.org #rubyfriend
@nontechpodcast looking at a dev to hire/ask for advice:
💚success w/diverse projects & tech
⎯💚bonus if they've worked on a similar project
💚some tech they love, especially if…
⎯💚scoped to "…for X,Y,Z"
⎯💚they can also list downsides
💚humility re: what they've not done
Re: impartial consultant to define your tech stack, [dis]approving a proposal may be more appropriate than define. There are good and not so good choices for a project, but among the ok-to-good choices, human/org factors will dominate technical ones.
💖 I sponsor RubenVanEldik because Hacker Daily gets me 90% of the value of Hacker News with only 10% of the FOMO and obsessive "More" clicking. github.com/sponsors/RubenVan…

Congratulations to our WEDU Be More Enriched, Arts & Culture Award Winner, New Tampa Players! @NewTampaPlayers
Hey @Wufoo logging in submits to a blank page, can't continue. Problem exists in Firefox and Safari and persists after a password reset (which works). Twitter name is account name.
Hate to call out @HeyFlywheel, but I've waited >24hrs on a help ticket with no response. Config request unusual, but not hard. Anyone home?
