@evan good luck. I was feeling done with the program so switched to interactive intelligence specialization and took software development process instead. What’s your specialization?

I sometimes make many commits when debugging something git related (like a heroku deploy). I started doing this:

$ git diff; git add. ; git commit -me

It makes a commit with a message of a single character `e`. So the longer my debugging goes, the more my commits are screaming with me:

eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Press E to eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Do you have tips for driving IRB as a background process through STDIN and writing outputs to a file?

I basically want to automate some tutorials that include showing how things should look in the irb REPL including the prompts and interface. But as soon as I run it without a TTY the styles all change and I’m not sure if there’s a combination of flags/settings to get them looking the same again.

Basically trying to get these outputs to match closer: https://gist.github.com/schneems/88223a7df82795922fdc1e8e1b47bfc0

Ruby 3.3.5 is now on Heroku https://devcenter.heroku.com/changelog-items/2982

I'm not an Olympics fanboy, but this is a pretty epic opening segment https://www.reddit.com/r/Music/comments/1ecz57f/gojira_ah_%C3%A7a_ira_metal_2024_live_in_france/.

A thing I've been working on for quite some time has finally made it's way to "preview" status.

Build docker images for your rails apps declaratively via the all new Cloud Native Buildpacks. Read more via the blog post:

Heroku has replied on people specifying a Ruby version in their Gemfile for a LONG time. We’ve never required it in the Gemfile.lock, until today.

We recently rolled out new Bundler versions which come with some new behavior. If you’re using Bundler 2.4+ you are required to have RUBY VERSION in your Gemfile.lock.

@thomasfuchs close runner up: the inability to validate someone else’s feelings without agreeing with their position.

Ruby 3.2 is released! My favorite Christmas tradition ?

@avdi the weirdest part to me is that it’s a Ruby thing and I don’t actually know who wrote or runs it, like socially.

I realize I could self correct that and I’ll probably do so soon but just find this odd in general.

@avdi scanning down the list of contributors first I recognize by name is @zundan.

Any tips for getting something merged into mastodon Zunda?

Wise words from @caleb on working with rspec #RubyConf2022

Tomorrow if you’re on Heroku free your app turns into a pumpkin.

Check out eco dynos, if you haven’t already. They’re not free, but are cheaper than a standard-1x.
