What kind of talks do you want to see at RubyConf 2026?
Had a great time hanging out with @jasonswett.bsky.social earlier this year. Thanks for having me, Jason!

I'm re-listening to this...Joel and I should be in jail for how thoroughly we killed and buried the popular but woefully misguided refrain "duplication is cheaper than the wrong abstraction".
This episode was recorded about six months ago, so you can travel back to a happier time in this conversation I had with @jasonswett.bsky.social on his podcast.

A zoom call with several attendees watching a screenshare of code being editing in neovim
I'm a big fan of @jasonswett.bsky.social's work - he publishes loads of great resources and is an all around nice guy.
I attended one of his twice-weekly zoom meetups earlier and it was great! He live-coded a new feature for his SaturnCI tool.
You should join one! www.codewithjason.com/meetup/
