It’s bittersweet to me to see Ruby (MRI) extract more C intervals to Ruby implementations.

I’m happy… elated! that that’s happened

Bummed that did this writ large ~15 years ago but wasn’t accepted/acknowledged/celebrated for doing it

A bootstrapped/self-hosted Ruby would be (will be!?) amazing someday

For example, here was Array in ’ array.rb

https://github.com/rubinius/rubinius/blob/master/core/array.rb

Rubinius, both codebase and project of people, were imperfect. Like all things. But…

Imagine being any Ruby developer, but especially a new one, and wondering what some method does, and getting to read Ruby code. 😍

If Apple didn’t already have iWork, Final Cut, or Logic, would they make them now? Kind of hard to imagine that kind of investment in new software from them. What even comes close in the last fifteen years?

@davetron5000 @collin they both just got massive updates in iPad versions. That’s a good sign, right? (He says optimistically, hopefully)

Re-upping my plea for help!

I’m really jammed up on this and blocked by it

When I get it solved, I get to delete 55 triggers and a gem!

And then a similar amount in three other rails apps

Help!?

@jamie @jesseplusplus thanks, both of yall!

honestly, I’m surprised that the fx gem doesn’t have this (that I know of) as an argument on drop_function and drop_trigger

Considering ways to organize lyrics, recordings etc that is low friction, keeps everything together, and is easy to search and organize. Has to sync with native apps.

Apple Notes excels in being low friction, but the tagging is not ideal and once I start including other files, the whole thing gets unwieldy.

Filesystem is appealing. I can put everything into a folder per song, but tagging is out the window, and it’s annoying on mobile.

I could make my own app, but I shouldn’t.

I want to donate to MaxFunDrive, but I'm already in for like $35 a month or something. I'm at my limit. I want to help the shows I like reach their goal, but giving $50+ a month for a the Star Trek podcast I listen to is kind of a lot.

@collin it’s only a lot if you make it a lot. we’re the grown ups now, we get to decide what’s silly or not. and just do more of whatever brings you joy. 😊

I've taken the vast majority of my photos with my Minolta Hi-Matic 7S II. It's just the perfect camera for me. I mostly shoot rangefinders, and mostly wide: I love the 40mm f1.7 lens it comes with. You can't change the lens on it, but it just feels like having a rangefinder with a 40 or 50mm lens on. It's great in low light (with black and white). It's tiny and looks like a toy camera.

It's a great camera and it costs less than.. the lens, on many other cameras I've got.

@skinnylatte I feel the same way about my Ricoh GR21

Super small, point and shoot, brilliant glass, 21mm lens. It’s, for me, a nearly perfect camera. 😊

I wrote JavaScript and it works and does something cool. What a time to be alive.

For anyone who needs to know, you can mute the term “Die Hard”.

@collin another sometimes available (like in the case of your post): don’t use an end of sentence punctuation at all

Which of these items belonging to a romantic partner is it OK to borrow and use? Choose all that apply.

@veganstraightedge@ruby.social avatar

@evan direction is ambiguous and matters to my answer

For me to borrow from them? Or…
Them to borrow from me?

hey peeps… how do you scan your film?

i’m thinking of diving back in for the first time in years

veganstraightedge,
@veganstraightedge@ruby.social avatar

@amy I pay the lab to scan it when I get it developed.

That part of the shooting film experience does not bring me any joy. So I avoid it.

veganstraightedge,
@veganstraightedge@ruby.social avatar

@amy yeah… it’s pretty brutal these days. 😭
