TIL StimulusJS supports keyboard event filters out of the box. I was so close to writing a bunch of custom JS before thinking to myself "nah, there's got to be a better way" .
Of course, there was.

TIL about Concurrent::Map compute_if_present. This method provides a simple interface to concurrently re-calculate a map value if it's key is present.
Found this in the Solid Cable Source 🕵️

I waste way too much time binging random crap on Youtube. If I need downtime, I might just as well watch something useful, right?
I think I found a hack to help with that.
Now I just redirect to RubyEvents and watch some talk 😅

Strong Service is Strong. We need more gems like this that push the boundary of what's possible.
But I have to say, this much touted DSL looks suspiciously like plain old Ruby 🕵️

I've been working on a variety of map-related projects recently and needed some sample images for locations.
Wrote this little script to pull a bunch of street view images. Dead simple.
Yeah, the resolution isn't great, but it's good enough for seeds 👌

I've been obsessed with Browser compatibility lately. Maybe one of my apps broke on an older version of Safari. Whoops.
Anyways. I got into Browserlists and Baseline, and wanted a way to integrate this tooling with Rails.

Lightgallery looks terrible out of the box. Luckily, pretty easy to fix with some simple CSS.
Here's the before and after. Pretty happy with the result 😊

Devise has this nice 'authorized` helper for conditionally defining routes based on whether the user is logged in or not.
Among other things, this allows you to define multiple root routes.
If you're not using Devise, here's how to create that helper yourself.

Tailwind doesn't always work well with Rails form helpers.
For example, button_to creates a form, which you mostly don't care about. The `contents` class turns the form into a phantom container, so it's children are treated like direct children of the parent.

I like that we can block specific browsers with Rails 8.0. However, I'm not the only one who feels that the default is somewhat arbitrary.
Sure, I can always set required versions myself. That's still cumbersome. Working on a little something to address this 🔧

TIL about ignoring references in git blame 👀
When making bulk formatting changes (e.g. RuboCop), you generally don't want those changes to show up in git blame/change sets in PR reviews. A `.git-blame-ignore-revs` tells git to ignore changes from specific revisions.

The Speculation Rules API seems like a neat idea.
Still very much experimental, but could replace other prefetching solutions (looking at you Turbo) once widely available 🤔

Personal highlights looking back are Piranesi and Lord of Light. The latter especially doesn't get as much recognition as it should IMO.
