Friendly.rb is taking a break.
We've had quite a few questions about that and wanted to share them publicly.

We did it!
Friendly.rb just won the gold medal in Olympic Procrastination (Video Publishing category).
Between us being lazy, a hard drive failure and recovery, and then the video crew taking on too many jobs, we got seriously delayed.
But now they are here 😻

I worked on FaceID. During development we had to train it which meant we graded our own scans. Let me tell you that seeing yourself in infrared from a bad angle while taking a shit is a jump scare you aren’t ready for.

File transfer done! Used rsync over SSH via Thunderbolt between two laptops, managed to sustain 20Gbps transfer speed
I pulled every rsync trick on the book to squeeze out every bit of performance
Some learnings:
– macOS Recovery “Share Disk” uses SMB, which is slow and unreliable. I ended up had to abort this transfer and switch to SSH
– Exclude the Desktop and Documents folders if they’re linked to iCloud Drive, as it could lead to stalling

I'm thrilled and honored to speak at the final @railsconf.
I'll be sharing my experience with the Rails Asset Pipeline: what it is, how it works, and how to create and integrate gems seamlessly with its various configurations.

This just in: Claude expresses significantly less existential distress than chatGPT 4o when presented with the same prompt asking it to script comics about its life (more detail in thread).
What does it mean???
