I used GitHub Copilot CLI to connect the Logitech MX Creative Console to my Elgato key lights!

I blogged about it here:

Arrays vs Slices in Go Array: fixed, value type arr := [3]int{10, 20, 30} // size is part of the type * Fixed size, decided at compile time. [3]int and [4]int are different types. * Value semantics when you assign or p...

wrote about the slice gotcha that bites every engineer in production.

b := a doesn't copy your data, it copies the header. your original slice WILL be affected.

You should never deploy alpha software in production machines 😬! A systemd bug broke booting an updated system, a systemd update broke Discover, but the good news is everything has been sorted and hardened now.

quickslice - Introduction

My crazy idea to cram all of the AT Protocol into a single deployable container. Works with SQLite, Postgres and potentially more data stores in the future. Steps are literally deploy container -> import your lexicons -> backfill -> build your app with the GraphQL APIs.

Optimizing Ruby performance: Observations from thousands of real-world services | Datadog Learn about trends in Ruby development and opportunities for improving performance that many organizations are leaving on the table.

So I updated to Firefox 145.0 and you know what it did, it switched all the browser.ml.* stuff on again!

When @firefox.com claims this is a choice, they are lying. They continue to try to force AI garbage onto people.

Decided to support more open source maintainers by running a merch shop for their community. Excited to launch with Ghostty, fzf, Vue.js, Redux, and... of course... Oh My Zsh.

Launching the 2025 State of Rust Survey | Rust Blog Empowering everyone to build reliable and efficient software.

It's time for the State of Rust Survey!

The Rust Project invites you to take this year’s survey, whether you have just begun using Rust, you consider yourself an intermediate to advanced user, or you have not yet used Rust but intend to one day 🦀

ok. I'll give it a try then.

Philly.rb Project Night, Tue, Nov 18, 2025, 5:30 PM | Meetup Have some **Ruby** code to show off? Need some time to work on your **side project**? Looking to **pair** with someone on an open source project? Come to the Philly.rb pro

Don't forget! Tomorrow is Philly.rb's next in person meetup and it's hack night! Have some Ruby code to show off? Looking to pair with someone on an open source project? Come to project night! Bring your own project or pick from one of ours. RSVP here: www.meetup.com/phillyrb/eve...

how was it? do you recommend it?

If your project doesn’t follow semver, tying deprecation to a specific version is pointless. something like “This will be removed in three years” is fine, but you should be more explicit so users know exactly what to expect.

Congratulations 🎉

Why Ruby Devs Keep Mixing Up Symbols and Frozen Strings; and How to Tell Them Apart Every time Ruby developers start talking about # frozen_string_literal: true, someone inevitably...

Hi @ufuk.dev, The article is live here: dev.to/hinokami_dev...

Thank you @byroot.bsky.social for the detailed feedback. Your insights on interning and hashing made it much stronger.

I find it interesting that every time frozen string literal is discussed, symbols are brought up.

It seems like symbols purpose and semantic isn't well understood. Isn't there a good post explaining what they are and how they're meant to be used?

maybe I'll give it a try this week.

The two most effective ways your company can support open source:

1. Let your developers have time for open source work.

2. Give each of your developers an annual budget to allocate to whatever OSS projects they think are important.

Why do I automatically come into the situations where i am the odd1out?

I really thank the devs of TheOdinProject for the Ruby course.

will give it a look.
