Looking through the replies, the theme seems pretty clear. Everyone has their favorite distro, which is great btw. But that is the issue imo. If you just want something stable and boring, Linux is just not it. Every distro has its own goals

Any mainstream language can be reliable. Java is a good choice for greenfield projects when it fits the organisation’s existing stack, expertise, or the broader industry ecosystem. Just like any other language. Banks, telcos, etc. aren’t mo

It’s a reasonable tradeoff. Shopify uses Rails, and there’s been a long history of discussion around E2E testing in the Rails community. In recent Rails releases, system tests, or E2E tests, are no longer enabled by default. The short versi

I’ve worked with both native and cross-platform. I think the mentality of being able to make changes quickly without much review often comes from cross-platform, especially when the developers come from a web background. Changes are cheap a

This anti-DHH movement is so weird to me. People seem to read summaries of his views, often based on interpretations that get exaggerated from one article to another until they become something else entirely. At least read the articles your

We rarely upgrade our phones or MacBooks because the newer version can do something the previous one literally couldn’t. Often it’s the efficiency, speed, battery life, etc, combined, that lets us push the hardware further. I get your point

Imo, you already lost the argument when you have to explain that PWA is the "app". For most users, app is something they install from App Store or Google Play. I get the point of view from developers point of view, but unless the

I’m building an internal tool for our company, basically an agent to help with on-call and alerts via Slack. I have evals running across a few scenarios, and my favorite models so far are Sol medium and Luna xhigh. Sol medium has been a nic

I’ve been experimenting with this for a while, and right now I’m using Luna xhigh as my default. Previously I was using Sol medium. Sol medium is a great balance between speed and being thorough, but it’s quite expensive. Luna xhigh seems t

People love taking generic engineering problems and somehow spinning them as Ruby specific issues. None of the issues you mentioned have anything to do with Ruby. They’re problems you can run into in any engineering project.

It’s 2026 and we’re still benchmarking Ruby using Twitter’s 2008 architecture. It was less about a language choice and more about years of architectural redesign. I thought we were past this by now.

It’s just a personal preference, to be honest, so I wouldn’t overengineer it yet. In my case, I run it in a VM behind Tailscale. The main reason is that I want it to be able to install or use whatever tools it needs without contaminating my

Pretty interesting read. One thing I’m curious about is the DB size trade off. Going from a quantity in Redis to one row per reservable unit seems like it could create a lot more rows, even with the 1,000 row cap per item/location.

Both can be true. How often do we hear about hacks that ultimately came down to bad defaults or simple security mistakes? That doesn’t mean any script kiddie could have discovered and exploited them. These things often look obvious and simp

Never learned Emacs but am a Neovim user. But similar to what I said to my colleagues as well. Codex, Claude Code are VS Code, Jetbrain. Pi is Neovim.

What tools are you using to run the comparison? Or are you just running the prompts and checking them with something like ccusage? I’m asking because I’ve been looking for agent harness comparison tools too. I’m interested in more than just

I'm currently using it to help me with my oncall, first responder to our any production alerts. It's not as efficient as coding agent by default, but it's been tremendously helpful to me.

That explains why he built sessions into libghostty instead of Ghostty itself. Looking forward to it. I spend most of my time in the terminal and have been using tmux to manage my sessions and workspaces, mainly via sesh. But recently, I de
