Found a chat between two foxes—just hanging out, like they own the place (and honestly, they do). Here’s what @andycroll, the wizard behind @brightonruby, scribbled:

 A: Go to Brighton Ruby. It’s really fun!
 B: I dunno, seems like we shouldn’t.

They’ll probably say “no” at first, but that’s just fox logic.
Deep down, they’re already packing their bags,
sharpening their code,
and practising their best conference jokes.

#whysfoxes #WhysPoignantGuideToRuby #brightonruby

Welcome to  @whysfoxes!

Thanks to @emma and @andycroll, @alexanderadam brings a printed copy of _why’s Poignant Guide to #Ruby to #conferences, where attendees write, draw, and colour inside it—making every page a little more magical.

Sharing highlights from the #guestbook: your writings, drawings, and colourful creations.
Let’s keep the whimsy alive together & make this corner of the internet a little more poignant (and more chunky).

Drop a line, share a story, or admire the foxes.

I’m also gonna turn off ticket sales on the weekend because late tickets are administratively annoying!

I promise I'll stop now. But I dug even further.

Think this is my favourite solution even though it's not the fastest.

I’ve started writing again! I wrote the first essay for my newsletter last week about how I view AI coding assistants. Would love to get your feedback!

The Next Abstraction

Or, Why AI Is Not Replacing Us

After a simpler solution was suggested... I got benchmark-y.
