@Ryanbigg nice write up. I love render. Have you considered kamal? I was using flyio before kamal 2.0 was released and now I feel like it’s hard to beat (and it can be improved a lot still).
Preferred timezones UTC-6 to UTC+6

I’m available #ForHire starting today.
Mainly a #ruby / #rails / #elixir developer with more than 15 years of experience.
I design databases, APIs, interfaces, and I know a bit about server admin, and deployment.

I am also very comfortable with mobile app development with #flutter.

I’ve developed edtech platforms, payment processor services, and VOD systems.

Self-driven and independent who can handle it all (backend/frontend/mobile/testing/deployments,etc).

Boosts appreciated.

@collin I beg to differ. I now have an IMPLEMENTATION_PLAN.md file that should take weeks to do but is literally completed in a single day!

And the tasks are always different depending on project requirements. With phases and milestones.

But the final task is always the same:
$ rm -rf project/

PS. also, I’m out $100 per project.

@Ryanbigg you’d think the other way around makes way more sense 🤷🏻‍♂️

@adrian I’d add this to the list “IBM is tripling the number of Gen Z entry-level jobs after finding the limits of AI adoption”

IBM is tripling the number of Gen Z entry-level jobs after finding the limits of AI adoption

Gen Z jobs aren’t dead yet: $240 billion tech giant IBM says it’s rewriting entry-level jobs—and tripling down on its hiring of young talent.

I propose canceling #birthdays and celebrating birth hours because we don’t have enough things to celebrate already.

I was born at 10:55am. So I expect a surprise party every day at that time. I’ll act surprised and happy. The party lasts for 30 seconds because we all have to prepare for the 10:56am surprise party 🎊 🎉🥳

I implemented Ruby's heap algorithm in MMTk in a day and 100 lines. Ruby's default GC is 10k+ lines. This doubles MMTk's performance from over 2x slower to almost on par. And I still haven't unlocked MMTk's true powers like generational GC or moving GC. https://github.com/ruby/mmtk/pull/54
Implement Ruby heap by peterzhu2118 · Pull Request #54 · ruby/mmtk

This heap emulates the growth characteristics of the Ruby default GC's heap. By default, the heap grows by 40%, requires at least 20% empty after a GC, and allows at most 65% empty before it sh...

@nezumi @benjamineskola since you loved laravel, fun fact: Taylor (the creator of Laravel) mentioned several times that laravel was inspired mainly by Ruby on Rails.
