What’s everyone using for calling international numbers these days?
I was using Skype 4 times a year to call institutions etc that don’t fit WhatsApp/signal/zoom etc, but Skype’s closing.
I’m still unemployed and looking for a new full time position doing Ruby, Rails, TypeScript, CSS.
If you know people who are hiring, I’d really appreciate an introduction. 🙏

Or the status field could be overridden each time a new Status record is added; like we would update a posts_count field on the parent model of an association
Yeah the convenience of enum suggests we should use it. We need a richer model with history tracking with an equally nice DSL

Well done!!
