@mms Impossible to answer without the context of the country.

Somewhere in Scandinavia? Infinite vacation days. The United States? 20 days with mandatory 12.

@zenspider Ryan is one of the greatest Ruby engineers I've had the privilege to work with; any Ruby shop would be lucky to have him. I'd be more than happy to provide a reference for those interested.

Hoping you get scooped up quickly, Ryan!

Ryan Davis' Résumé | |

One of these days I'll be able to call it a curriculum vitae!

Rails 8.0 hasn't even been out 24 hours and we're already running it in production at Zendesk. Tens of thousands of subdomains now powered by Rails 8.0. Just another humble entry into the "Does Ruby/Rails scale?" conversation. 💎🚆 #ruby #rails
@ufuk Thank you! :)
Which enterprise companies are running Rails Main in production? GitHub and Shopify, anyone else? We're quite close to doing the same at Zendesk, I'm just gathering a list of who we'll be joining to show we won't be alone.
@purinkle Dang, these vegan fish and chips from No Catch ARE amazing! Thanks for the recommendation.
