Prompts are declarative, not imperative Most developers write prompts like scripts — step by step, imperative. LLMs want a spec, not a recipe. The sooner you make that switch, the better the model performs.

Experiments are the AI superpower nobody is using AI made credible variations nearly free to generate. Rails makes them trivial to ship. Most teams are not running the experiments they could.

Grandísima artista, mejor persona. Una maravilla todo. Muchas felicidades, Alejandra.

Most developers don't need to learn AI.
They need to learn to describe what they want clearly.

The ones who explain problems in plain language get 10x more from AI than the ones who write clever prompts.

Communication is the skill now.

The real accessibility crisis isn't screen readers. It's that we built the entire web for sighted humans clicking buttons, and now AI agents need to navigate it too.

Turns out "make it work for everyone" was always the right architecture.

and tbh, I was really only talking about bugs with the previous post.

Let's not even mention the regular outages (like Opus currently having one for the past 6hrs). It's almost as unreliable as GitHub!

Building Tools for AI Agents: What I've Learned Working with Claude Code The real power of Claude Code isn't asking it to write code — it's building tools that extend what the agent can do. Here's what I've learned about designing MCP servers, CLAUDE.md files, and custom commands.

How I built a complete analytics dashboard for my Rails blog with Claude Code I built a full analytics dashboard for my Rails blog — unique visitors, bounce rate, SVG charts, geolocation — with no third-party scripts. Here's exactly how I did it with Claude Code and Ahoy.

SaaS is not dying, SaaS is evolving SaaS isn't dying. It's being forced to evolve. AI won't replace SaaS — it will transform what SaaS products can do.

I've been building for the web for over two decades. I've survived the jQuery era, the rise and fall of framework fatigue, and more "Ruby on Rails is dead" takes than I can count. If you're thinking about getting into web development this is the moment.

Reusability is my main concern. If I need to create a record with some unusual data that can not be easily reused (and I can not reuse/modify an existent record) then I create one record only for that test. The very moment I think I can reuse it in other places it becomes a fixture.

#Ruby is a dynamically typed language. All the efforts of adding types to a dynamically typed language are better invested into understanding dynamically typed languages so you don't need to add types to them because they don't need them. Specially when there are very good typed languages.

I think you have summarised perfectly what most of the #rails community think.

Ya no se hacen las cosas como antes. El Titanic, un barco que lleva más de 100 años hundido y la piscina todavía tiene agua.

I'm old enough that I've deployed an application to production with every mayor #ruby on #rails version. And it's still a joy doing so. Actually the first one was called Oficina Inmobiliaria and it wasn't even Rails 1.0 yet. I had to compile ruby as cgi for apache. Those were the days...

As a company full invested in the ruby on rails ecosystem we are delighted with the last edition of #RailsWorld Looking forward to all the amazing features of Rails 8.1.
An amazing product couldn't be possible without an amazing and vibrant community.
For those about to rails we salute you!

Spoiler alert: Now you know the person. I bought it for talentohq.com

I just merged this into production.

We launched suggested code diffs last week!
