There's never been a better time to become a web developer If you're thinking about becoming a web developer, stop thinking and start building. The barrier to entry has never been lower, and the ceiling has never been higher. There's never been a better time.

I've been building for the web for over two decades. I've survived the jQuery era, the rise and fall of framework fatigue, and more "Ruby on Rails is dead" takes than I can count. If you're thinking about getting into web development this is the moment.

Reusability is my main concern. If I need to create a record with some unusual data that can not be easily reused (and I can not reuse/modify an existent record) then I create one record only for that test. The very moment I think I can reuse it in other places it becomes a fixture.

#Ruby is a dynamically typed language. All the efforts of adding types to a dynamically typed language are better invested into understanding dynamically typed languages so you don't need to add types to them because they don't need them. Specially when there are very good typed languages.

Apple amenaza con no traer algunos de sus productos a Europa por las normas antimonopolio La compañía dice que "no puede resolver" todos los requisitos de Bruselas para los gigantes digitales, que podrían forzarla "a dejar de enviar productos a la UE"

LLevo 25 años utilizando ordenadores Apple y por extensión teléfono, apple music, iClould, etc... Y creo que mi próximo ordenador será Linux y el teléfono un Samsung.

I think you have summarised perfectly what most of the #rails community think.

I'm old enough that I've deployed an application to production with every mayor #ruby on #rails version. And it's still a joy doing so. Actually the first one was called Oficina Inmobiliaria and it wasn't even Rails 1.0 yet. I had to compile ruby as cgi for apache. Those were the days...

I did a comparison between searches from #perplexity #ai and google search. It makes painfully obvious how broken and useless google search is today. Perplexity gives you useful results every single time.

I'm using Comet, the browser from @perplexitycomet.bsky.social and it's much more accurate at giving you search results than google is.

And you can ask things like: "List of 5 technical blogs about Ruby on Rails. Ignore those based on Medium". Just amazing.

Integrating @activeagents.ai into talentohq.com has been a really smooth process. It's in beta now.

Two things that have surprised me the most lately:

- How good @warp.dev is. And I mean... really, really good.
- Why Apple didn't buy them to make it the default terminal in their OS.

Using the @diabrowser.com has been a huge improvement in my daily workflow. It has the right context about me and the searches are focused and to the point. It's a life-saver now that Google search has become a cesspool.

If the only value that you add to your company is given some specifications produce some code then you will be replaced by the #ai. If you understand your product, users and business model and you write code to improve that then the AI will help you but won't replace you.

Remember that if you use tools like claude code or gemini cli they can read your entire project file and that includes things like .env files, master.key, etc...

A simple fix would be that those tools read the .gitignore file and honor it.
