This year marks the 20th anniversary of my work on JRuby! I'm looking forward to sharing that story and talking about the future with folks around the world. Being able to speak at @RubyConf and @RailsWorld would be a fitting way to celebrate 20 years. I hope I'm accepted. 🤞
@headius congrats, charlie! the ruby world is much better off for your contributions and few people stick with an effort as long as you have to make this kind of impact.
it’s crazy to think about the thread from your rubyconf 2006 demo to sitting in our war room at drw helping us with perf issues … til now!
thanks for everything you do. ❤️
