When debug queries in the console I often want to see the raw DB queries being made.

Here's a quick little piece of code which will make those queries visible in the console.

I hade a nice chat with @jasonbosco about dev-tools, pricing, and the reservations that developers have about paying for tooling 🤷‍♂️

Who will I see at SFRuby in about a month from now?

Sometimes you just need to quickly clear the cache when working in your development environment. Here's a quick snippet to make that easier.

It seems @typesense is really popular on Hacker News today 💪

I just had a cool chat with @AmandaBPerino about the conference season, the Ruby Triathlon, and most importantly, the new @therubypassport.bsky.social‬ 🛂

Who else adds emoji's in their slide notes which nobody will ever read?

This past few days, Rubyists attending #RailsWorld got a glimpse at the Ruby Passport.
It's a new initiative which is meant to make participating live events so much more fun and engaging.
Next, it will travel to @friendlyrb.com and @euruko.org and soon other Ruby events all around the world 🌍

Would anyone want to see what Avo v1 looked like?

Ok. I’m doing it. Getting back into running.
I have a long way to go but looking forward to running a 5k together in Amsterdam at Rails World, in Bucharest at @friendlyrb.com, and in Vaiana do Castello at @eurukoconf.bsky.social

I'm vibe-coding this mega menu on @avo_hq's homepage today and quite enjoying the process 🙌

If you're doing TailwindCSS development, do yourself a favour and drop this snippet in your `application.html.erb` file ✨

You have an at a glance view of which breakpoint you should use based on the screen size.

The golden rule for libraries is to support integration with as many parent apps as possible because you want to cover as much as you can of the full spectrum of customers.

Two weeks ago, at the last RailsConf I brought an "I am Friendly" swag item to put up for auction.
A certain "Mike W" won it and never got to meet or thank him in person.

So help me find "Mike W" somewhere online so I can say "Thank you" 🫶

What does a European do when he reaches an American train station in a new city? He walks to the hotel 🙌

Who had three hours of sleep last night, almost missed his flight because he forgot the visa passport at home and had to go back, but just landed in NYC and on his way to #railsconf to meet the most awesome developer community in the whole wide world?

This guy!

Sometimes the best conversations happen when you embrace being the person who doesn't quite feel like they belong yet.

If you like collectibles and you're at RailsConf, here's your chance of getting your hands on a very limited edition "I am Friendly" lithography frame.

It's a labour of love hand-made by my sister and father.
We only give these to speakers and Friendly.rb supporters.

I just love @ruby_africa's logo ✨

For those debugging JS assets, toggle the "Hide extension URLs" filter in the Network tab.
It will dramatically cleanup the asset list 🤯
