On truth #fyodordostoyevsky

"A man who lies to himself and listens to his own lie comes to a point where he does not discern any truth either in himself or anywhere around him, and thus falls into disrespect towards himself and others"

Noise of 'knowledgeables' (those who have concrete opinions on things they're passionate about but not necessarily entirely knowledgeable about)
has approached a dangerous threshold.
Noise is pollution.
Pollution is poisonous.
We have listen with carefully.

Hearsay has increased dangerously.
Truth has become a scarcity.
Navigating through this overload of information is key to remaining balanced and healthy, both emotionally & physically.
Support truth & avoid hearsay.
We owe to ourselves & our children.

We just publicly posted about the Rubygems.org AWS root-access security incident from September 2025, what occurred, what we verified, and the actions we’ve taken to strengthen our security processes.

For me, the dire situation in #Gaza & #Israel in its entirety is difficult to fully comprehend.
Atrocities of Oct 7th, ongoing settler aggression, stance of #Israel towards #Palestinians is one thing.
The other thing is HOW Israel is trying to solve it.
That horrifies me.

There was once a kitchen, utensils galore, pantries full of ingredients & all things needed to cook & dine. The right chef, with the right team in action could create an extravaganza.
But sadly the ill equipped chef & his team succeed only in making a pigs dinner. #shortstories

Can both be true?
Or does one have to be wrong so that the other is right?

So the mafia accountant turned whistleblower Cemil Önal, supposedly being looked after by Dutch & US secret services is killed, a day after the journo @Aysemden (who interviewed him) is warned via a phone call to stop writing articles.

It is rather risky to speak against hope (or ‘hope‘), but I decided to do just that. Frightened people will not be free
Hope is the key to the West's imprisonment
An endlessly recurring, establishment-produced 'hope' discourse keeps Westerners distracted and unable to focus on things that matter | and also: what China got right, and the West didn't

We live in a time where money can buy innocence & victimhood.

Masumiyetin ve mağduriyetin parayla satın alınabildiği bir zamanda yaşıyoruz.

Nous vivons à une époque où l’argent peut acheter l’innocence et la victimisation.

Honored and excited to share that I'm speaking at the final RailsConf in Philly!

This talk explores a vision for a new reactive view-layer while preserving ERB and the HTML-over-the-wire philosophy.

It builds on what I'll be presenting at RubyKaigi next week!

Rails has seen features we loved, dropped, and quietly reintroduced with new names.

After years of tracking trends through the Rails community survey, I'll be sharing a talk at the final #RailsConf in Philly.

It's about the code, the chaos, and how we keep evolving.
🚨 The RailsConf 2025 schedule is now LIVE!

This will be the FINAL RailsConf—a landmark event celebrating the past, present, and future of Rails.

I think we skipped a physical World War 3 & shot into #4 without even realising.

War is about intel.
False intel.
Misleading intel.
Control of the flow of intel.
Manipulation of intel.
Creation & management of intel.

The humbleness of people at funerals is so incredibly precious, sincere & rare.
Shouldn't take the loss of someone you care for or love to jolt you into a state of humility.
