New Muse is very much my aesthetic. #music
Enjoying the bustling south coast vibes on this sunny day.
Side-effect of switching from ActiveRecord to rom-rb ~3 years ago. Not only are my apps better architected, but I've become MUCH better at working and thinking directly in SQL.
This means I get to push more processing work away from Ruby and into the database, where it is handled faster and better.
In the end, I had to switch to another gem. Filed this issue: https://github.com/httprb/http/issues/508
I'd love to use the "friendlier" HTTP.rb gem here, but completely failing to work is kind of undermining the "friendly" part.
Any #ruby folk here found issues with the http gem not working with responses lacking a Content-Length header?
See:
HTTP.get("https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search/canberra").to_s
=> ""
Versus:
Net::HTTP.get(URI("https://nominatim.openstreetmap.org/search/canberra"))
=> "<!DOCTYPE html>... "
Remember when you could just _use_ the google maps API?
Taylor Swift concert prep, as a 34yo sleep-deprived father: we arrive early at hotel, enjoy a couple of glasses champagne, grab a cheap $5 end-of-the-day Chinese dinner, and importantly, the disco cup of tea (I believe this will be the clincher).
Made a unicode joke at work and my day is complete

André Arko wrote up how he sped up parsing the logs of #RubyGems, making it 230x faster with #Rust, than with #Ruby. On #AWSLambda. For free.

I am all about the earnestness of these interludes/outros:

Gave birth to 2 #ruby talk proposals this week. This is a big thing, they’d been gestating for quite some time. I hope I get the chance to share them!
Started watching Steven Universe last night, and it is ADORABLE. Thank you for sharing this recommendation with the world, @ashfurrow!
Absolutely cannot resist a bit of hurdy-gurdy in my heavy metal. #music
"Code is not just about how it exists today but how it can grow healthily in the future."
Spot on.
