Successfully updated my instance’s host from Ubuntu 22.04 LTS to 24.04 LTS.

Ran into a dependency issue after reboot, but ‘bundle install —force’ fixed it.

All is well.

TIL James Golick’s blog is still online at jamesgolick.com. #ruby #rubyonrails

Does anyone remember the name of that #RubyOnRails conference that was on a train?

I’m thinking it may be fun to do something similar but would need to understand the costs better, and can’t remember who organized it

New on the HB dev blog:

Hey #Rails / #PostgreSQL folks:

I'm making an ActiveRecord .where query on an ltree column. I'm trying to do two things (2 different queries):

1: I want to get the immediate children of a given entry.

2. I want to get all the descendants of a given entry.

My descendants query seems to work, but my children query throws an error " invalid regular expression: quantifier operand invalid", so I'm clearly not doing it right:

What did I screw up?
#RubyOnRails

Now @thomascountz is giving a talk "From #Legacy to Latest: How #Zendesk Upgraded a #Monolith to #Rails 8.0 Overnight" at #rubycommunityconference.

Also, it's not very obvious in the photo but the slides have an amazing console #ASCII style.

Now @hharen promoted the upcoming edition of @helvetic_ruby in #Geneva #Switzerland in may.

Feel free to ping me if you want to meet there.

Oh, @realpawels talk at #rubycommunityconference reminds me of the upcoming edition of @helvetic_ruby since there will be a trip to #cern, the birthplace of the #web.

Although his talk is focusing on #ai and #llm later on.

It's always great to see @rosa and she talked about her #SolidQueue implementation at #rubycommunityconference in #krakow.

She also gave a shout-out to @bensheldon's #goodjob and mentioned how @getajobmike's @sidekiq is blazingly fast.

It's wonderful to see @tenderlove live again at #rubycommunityconference in #krakow.

I once worked in a company where people used ReactJS with Ruby on Rails.
