If you know us, you know we love Ruby. @sfrubyconf was born out of our appreciation for the language and its community. It’s a conference for passionate engineers who are moving the ecosystem forward. We have talks from people at @Shopify, @GustoHQ, @Intercom, @withpersona, @AnthropicAI, @typesense, and more, plus the creators of RubyLLM, Herb, and Solid Queue. If you’re into learning from the brightest minds, having conversations that help build a better future, and making new friends, you won’t want to miss this. Read more about why this conference is for you: evilmartians.com/chronicles/…

Why engineers should come to the SF Ruby Conference in 2026—Martian Chronicles, Evil Martians’ team...

SF Ruby is an engineers' conference: meet the people building Ruby open source, scaling Rails in production, and shaping what agentic Rails looks like next.

A group of top-tier Rails developers I know and worked with were unfortunately laid off today. Any company would be fortunate to pick them up. If you or anyone you know is hiring, send me a DM 🙏

Well, it happened. Unfortunately I've been affected by layoffs. 😢 In total shock, but will be looking for a role soon.

Welp... Got laid off from Podia today. Kinda a lot to process for a Thursday. I'll have something more coherent to say eventually. For now, send Ruby/Rails leads. Or dog pictures.... Both are good.

Not as fun as the game show but (hopefully) a bit more useful. The post talk conversations and feedback have been great!

Ok, let's just put a loop inside a loop. Nothing bad ever happens in nested loops.

Pitching a fit on your blog or socials and berating the organizers every time your talk isn't accepted for a conference is a great way to ensure that your talk is never accepted at those conferences.
