Nerd BFCM stats:
Shopify’s egress processed 145 billion requests on Friday. App servers handled peak of ~60 million requests per minute. Increase of 38%. Total GMV was $4.1b, up by 22% from last year.
But Rails doesn't scale so what are we even doing 🤷♂️

"Highly specific project definitions usually go astray very quickly. Vague enough definitions allow for creativity and selectivity.. And when you allow for those two things, you empower [the people doing the work] with the agency to do the best work." medium.com/computers-are-har…

🔥 Protip for any junior developers looking to get their first job:
Build apps and use them every day. Maintain your apps and add new features.
New developers rarely do this, yet it's a _lot_ what you'll be doing on the job every day. It's a great way to stand out.
Honestly, I was expecting this to be interesting but probably not something I'd spend $ on. Half way through this video I was sold. hey.com/how-it-works/
Yesterday I recorded a single take, ~37 minute walkthrough of HEY (one snafu, sorry!). So if you really want to see it in action, and you have a half-hour to spare, check it out here: youtube.com/watch?v=UCeYTysL…

Do you remember when you first discovered Ruby & Rails? Do you recall the 10x gains in productivity? What about the ability to run circles around other teams & ship valuable features while they were mired in sunk costs? You can experience that again 👉 docs.stimulusreflex.com

Incredibly well-written story about how real people & small biz are getting screwed by big ticketing corps & the solutions Passage has been building. Thank you so much @_LizEngel for shining a light on this important issue. We're humbled to be included! ow.ly/cyfi50znNB5

If your company is capable of working remotely but continues to insist on having employees commute to and congregate in an office, well, stop. You’re literally putting people and their loved ones at risk. Don’t do that.

Amazing accomplishment. Not just to have built a billion-dollar company, but to have done so without basing it on surveillance capitalism, without being from Silicon Valley, and powered by Ruby on Rails since Rails 0.5 was released ~15 years ago. 👏🙏❤️
