• The New Era of Rails: Markdown, Offline Mode, and Smarter Dev Tools - RUBY 681

  In this solo episode, I sit down to unpack my thoughts on DHH’s RailsWorld keynote and what it means for those of us building modern Rails apps. There’s a lot to love about Rails right now — from the push toward simplicity and reducing needless complexity to powerful new features landing in Rails 8.1 like Markdown rendering, offline mode, structured events, push notifications, and more. I also dive into some of the deployment and infrastructure ideas DHH shared, including Kamal, Omarchi, and the “broad toolchain” philosophy that’s shaping the future of Rails.I also share my own experiences with deploying Rails apps using Kamal, my thoughts on the microservices vs. monolith debate, and why I’m seriously considering running more of my own infrastructure at home. Plus, I dig into some new projects I’m launching, including podcasts, video series, and SaaS work built using Rails 8.1’s latest capabilities.🔗 Links & ResourcesKamal – https://kamal-deploy.orgHotwire / Turbo Native – https://hotwired.devBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/ruby-rogues--6102073/support.

• Keeping Ruby Welcoming: A Conversation We Need to Have - RUBY 680

  In this solo episode, I open up about what’s been going on behind the scenes with Ruby Rogues and why you’ve been hearing more solo shows from me lately. Between new full-time work, family life, and shifting schedules among the panelists, it’s been a wild stretch — but I’m committed to keeping the show coming to you every week. From there, I dive into something that’s been on my mind for a while now: the health of the Ruby community and what Minaswan really means in 2024.I reflect on the growing cultural and political tensions I’ve seen spill into technical spaces and why I believe our community is stronger when we focus on behavior, kindness, and collaboration rather than labels and ideological litmus tests. I talk about how we can disagree without dividing, maintain safe and welcoming spaces without gatekeeping based on worldview, and get back to what brought us all here in the first place: a shared love of Ruby, learning, and helping each other grow.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/ruby-rogues--6102073/support.

• Inside the RubyGems Controversy: Transparency, Trust, and the Future of Ruby Central - RUBY 679

  In this solo episode of Ruby Rogues, I’m unpacking one of the biggest stories in the Ruby world right now: the tension between Ruby Central and core RubyGems contributors. I share what I’ve learned from talking to people across the community and why this issue is more complex than it looks on social media. From the origins of Bundler and Ruby Together to the recent creation of gem.coop, I trace how we got here—and why both sides have valid points but also made serious missteps.I also open up about what this means for the Ruby ecosystem going forward, why transparency and trust matter more than ever, and how we as a community can respond productively. Toward the end, I lighten things up with some picks, including a clever deduction card game and a heartfelt call for more understanding in our world—both in code and beyond.🔗 Links & ResourcesRuby Centralgem.coop – the new RubyGems mirror/community alternativeTop End Devs – get involved or create your own dev contentEmail Chuck: [email protected] if you’re interested in co-hosting or authoring a seriesBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/ruby-rogues--6102073/support.
