You should have the power to change anything and everything about your computer, your framework, and your server. End-to-end open source is your ticket to tell Apple — or anyone! — to go fuck themselves when they seek to dictate how you compute. youtube.com/watch?v=gcwzWz…

Avoid giant `IN` lists with thousands of IDs. Pass a relation instead, and let Rails turn it into a clean subquery for better performance. 💚 #rubyonrails

You really don't need a fancy new computer to run Omarchy. I've been shocked at how well Linux runs on even quite old gear. So different to the latest versions of Windows and macOS that seemingly needs the latest and greatest to fly.

Installed Omarchy on my old Dell Latitude 7420 that I got $250 on EBay. Runs Great! I love it. Thanks @dhh!

Why hire a $150k/year dev when you can just pay $200/month for an AI coding agent and $200k/year for a dev to fix its code?

Quitting programming as a career right now because of LLMs would be like quitting carpentry as a career thanks to the invention of the table saw.

My mind changed re: programming with AI as soon as I realized how much of the stuff I do when "programming" is just tedious grunt work. Programming with AI actually frees me up to do more programming, not less.

This is a great cursor rule file for Rails projects - worth a read for humans too. From the @MaybeFinance repo github.com/maybe-finance/…

@robzolkos At this point, I consider letting server-side validations leak into the UI somewhat of an antipattern. Never let the user submit data that isn't valid. Use DB constraints to raise an exception if they side step the UI. We should revamp the helpers for Rails 9.

Use Bundler's inline mode for quick and easy Ruby scripts! Running the script will automatically install any missing gems, require them, and then run your code. 🤩 #ruby #rubyonrails

A few people saw me coding while I was in LA last weekend and asked, "Hey, do you use Cursor or Copilot?" I do not, and I think it's important to share the reason why. I tested Copilot in VS Code for a few months earlier this year. Yes, it feels like magic. But then I noticed…
