It’s nice that we’re able to craft new TruffleRuby releases on our own schedule again. We’ll be shipping bug fixes faster going forward.
This was an unexpected change. RubyMine is now free for non-commercial use. There's no need to apply for an open source license any longer:

I know double-quoted strings are the norm in many Ruby style guides, but I just can't get used to them. Single-quoted strings look nicer, IMHO, and are easier to type for anyone with RSI on a standard keyboard layout. I think they're a hug…
Working with BackBlaze B2 and ActiveStorage gave me a flashback to when I spent months adding mock implementations of S3 versioning to Fog. It was a lot of tedium working out exactly how S3 would respond because actual API responses often …
So far, I'm really enjoying it. But, also struggling a bit with outdated modes of thinking on some parts. I'm trying to use an LLM as a code buddy, too, to build up that skill. But, I never know if it's giving me info that's idiomatic for …
I've been working on Ruby implementations for a long time. I got started with some basic Ruby Enterprise Edition stuff a long time ago, then JRuby, then TruffleRuby, then CRuby (most of this was actually at the same time). One of the chall…
The JetBrains AI stuff was really not that good when I used it over the summer, but it's really come into its own. I've used it pretty extensively with RubyMine, CLion, and IntelliJ over the past couple of weeks. It has a really nice full …
If you’re at #RubyConf2024 and are interested in TruffleRuby, please feel free to reach out. I’m happy to chat and look at code.
I'm giving Tailwind a shot with Rails 8.0.0-beta1. I've been rather skeptical of Tailwind since I've first heard of it, but I've been told I need to try it to truly get it, so I'm doing that.
My first hour or so was spent trying to figure …
The Steam Families feature is out of beta:

I'm still amazed such a pro-consumer move was made. Most media companies have been using digital as a way to restrict rights…
I quite enjoy Rust. We use it for YJIT and I’ve been using it personally for years (incidentally, building a different compiler). But, its usage in Ruby gems has been an endless source of headaches, even on CRuby.
My gripe at the moment is…

About
I'm a Staff Engineer at Shopify where I work on YJIT and TruffleRuby. I care a lot about efficient use of resources, making code fast, and saving humans time by making software smarter.
Historically, I've been active in the Boston startup community. Previously I co-founded Servprise and Mogotest, operating each of those for ~4.5 years each, and have worked at a few other area startups on early engineering teams.
I'm fond of music & enjoy drumming.
