I'm excited that Rails 8.2 is going to have to_markdown for Action Text content. Given Markdown is the lingua franca for LLMs, this is going to make it dead easy to add markdown support to your Rails app API.

"See what you made me do?" is what bullies and abusers say to try to make people compliant in the future. Fuck this complete asshole.

It made me so sad and angry to see these scientific budget cuts. We're eating our intellectual seed corn. NASA has to operate on timelines longer than a presidential term, this feel unrecoverable.

Rubyists, I just updated the Nokogiri docs site https://nokogiri.org/ to use Zensical. Let me know if anything looks wonky!

Shout out to @squidfunk@fosstodon.org and the @zensical@fosstodon.org crew. Good stuff!

Oh, late last year I also published a post about universal precompiled native Rubygems!

This might be especially interesting if you've been following along with the bundler performance conversations like this post by @tenderlove@mastodon.social :
