I know I’ve been more politically active lately… it today X stopped about 1 in 3 of my posts. I hit retry, doesn’t matter. I view my drafts…lots of anti republican and capitalist posts. Is this censorship?

Today we published the Rails reference library, a curated collection of open-source apps meant to serve as an example (for you, LLMs, and anyone new to the community) of production-quality, battle-tested, convention-following Rails applications. Thank you to @robzolkos for designing and shipping this page. Read about it here: rubyonrails.org/2026/7/24/ne… Or check it out for yourself: rubyonrails.org/docs/referen…

Today I was part of another round of tech layoffs, and it was unexpected. I’m a Rails developer with 15 years experience and deep expertise, especially with Hotwire, backend, and viewcomponent. I’m looking for a new opportunity. Please hit me up if you wanna work together!

Is it just me or has @github gotten slow since React started being used? I have a beefy iMac Pro and 100mb/s internet and there is noticeable lag in comments and code navigation. (All browser extensions are disabled and I’m using Brave)
