@zenspider lolsob… the README needs updating too.
Thanks for the first real laugh I’ve had all day!
@fedora the mechanics of how packaging tool ecosystem works together is very arcane. rpm, rpkg, fedpkg, mock, rpmbuild, dist-git, source-git, …. Maybe there’s a need for a high level overview of how these things fit together.
Yes, this being a thread about contributions, perhaps _I_ should write it 😛
We're bringing Ruby Hack nights back to Melbourne! Just a space to bring your laptop and hack on whatever you like with other Rubyists. A space to learn, teach, hang out and have a good time.
6:00 PM Thursday July 4, at the Zendesk offices in the CBD.

Should be super fun!
We're hosting an evening of hacking all things Ruby - bring your laptop and a project you want to hack on! 💎🧑💻🧠🚀 If you've got something you're working on and want to get some feedback 💬, help 🫱, ideas 💡, or just show off 🤩 – this is the place for you! Or maybe there's been a thing that's been niggling you for a while about Ruby or a gem you use that you'd like to have a swing at fixing 🏏, but need some pointers. It could be a problem you've run into at $DAYJOB that you'd like to bounce off the community too 🎾. And if you don't have any of these, come along anyway - maybe you'll learn something you didn't know 💪, or teach something to somebody else 🧑🏫. And, no matter what, we're sure you'll have a good time with some Ruby friends regardless 🙂. What to expect: A bunch of Rubyists with their laptops hacking on their stuff, and learning from each other This should be suitable for all experience levels - from "getting started with Rails" stuff to "fixing bugs in Ruby" and everything in between We'll feed you The logistical info: Thursday July 4, from 6pm to 8:30pm Zendesk's offices: Level 13, 550 Bourke St, Melbourne Bring your laptop (optional but encouraged!) Please fill in this form so we know how many people to feed! Contact me (KJ) on 0433 269 252 for any queries
@hsbt that thread is just full of entitlement and whinging :(
The chef thing there complaining about seems very strange. They’re saying that “their stuff just broke” because their production servers just suddenly started downloading a new version of rexml…. But shouldn’t they only be bundling from a frozen lock file in production??? Of course things are going to randomly break if your download unconstrained software from the internet straight to production…
