Ruby pals - I seem to have used a very old email address I no longer have access to for creating a RubyGems account forever ago. Someone’s asked for a gem name that I’m not going to use. But I can’t signin/connect to add an owner.
Thoughts on how to reclaim an account in this state?
What a crowd! What a kick-off! 🤩
We're so grateful to the community for being here and to Matz for keynoting #RubyConf this morning.
Remember to tag us in your photos!
Very odd experience at #RubyConf, I’m sitting in a talk on Ruby history, explaining Matz’s influences, motivations… and Matz is sitting in the front row, nodding along. I expect it is even more odd for him! The speaker even threw to him for a question about how booleans were handled early on.
@rubyconf unsolicited advice: turn the lights down/off in the presentation rooms for improved slide contrast and visibility
good for the presenter and audience

SQL syntax errors are a bit more verbose and show you the location of the error in the statement; and the Database constructor now accepts URI filenames.
We, the anonymous editors of the Stallman report, have published our investigation of Richard Stallman and the Free Software Foundation today to a general audience:
Our report exhaustively catalogues, analyzes, and offers a rebuttal of Richard Stallman's political program of sexual violence, catalogues credible allegations of misconduct, and documents the misconduct of the #FSF circa 2019 and 2021. Please read and share our work.
Boosts encouraged.
October 14th, 2024 Richard Stallman (aka “RMS”) is the founder of GNU and the Free Software Foundation and present-day voting member of the Free Software Foundation (FSF) board of directors and “Chief GNUisance” of the GNU project. He is responsible for innumerable contributions to the free software movement, setting its guiding principles, organizing political action, and directly contributing to a flourishing free software ecosystem. The majority of Stallman’s political activity has been of priceless value to society at large.
