Almost done writing episode 9. Excited about this one. Lots of exciting stuff to talk about.

rubyfacets.com/8 block rescue in Ruby 2.5, Yarn & Webpacker, system tests in Rails 5.1, and coming Active Storage in Rails 5.2.

Episode 8 is in the can, should be out tomorrow!

rubyfacets.com/7 Why learn Rails in 2017, OSSERT, to_s vs. to_str, ROM 0.3.0, Coercion Protocols, ways to eradicate nil values.

Yes! We’re finally back from The Longest Winter Break. Thanks so much for your patience. :-)

rubyfacets.com/6 Deep dive in Ruby 2.4.0, TruffleRuby updates, new stuff in Bundler 1.14, Kaminari reaches 1.0, Castaway, and swot.

Here’s a quick little update about all this and my plans for Ruby Facets in 2017. patreon.com/posts/7751035

rubyfacets.com/5 News on Guilds, Ruby Tapas on Threads, new Ruby versions, a Rails feature diary, and Turbolinks without Rails.

rubyfacets.com/4 Faster RubyGems.org, @schneem’s Concerns, Procodile 🐊 from @adamcooke, @danny__garcia’s Swift tips.

Curious how I write episodes of the show? I use Byword and Markdown. The show notes are my script.

rubyfacets.com/3 Bundler 1.13 & multiple source vulnerability, Elm in Rails, let the Asset Pipeline die?, and Capybara & Rails.

Episode 3 is in the can, should be out early tomorrow. Sorry about the short hurricane-related hiatus.

rubyfacets.com/2 Concurrency in Ruby 3 with Guilds, The Next Ruby, Ruby Tapas 2.0, Programs that rewrite programs, & Keep Ruby Weird

Had to re-record episode 2 due to some minor technical issues so it should be out early tomorrow morning.

We made it to iTunes! itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/… All right, I’ll go easy on the tweets for the rest of the day. A merry Ruby day to you all.

We’re also on @OvercastFM thanks to @searls. ❤️

We’re now on Google Play. play.google.com/music/m/Ivyb…

Just submitted the show to Google Play and iTunes so it should appear in both places soon.
