Today I wanted to use Codex agent from Linear. I can’t. I assign it an issue, and it tells me I need to set up an environment. So I go looking for how—and why that isn’t automatically set up for me. I end up having to Google it or ask a different app, because it won’t tell me.

One thing we had to acclimate ourselves to at @avohq.io with the new LLM-powered engineering methods was that our PRs would be much thicker, with more lines of code. LLMs (or at least our setup) document things inline much more than we did. Also, the tests are much more detailed.

If anybody tells you that software development isn't changing, there is something wrong with them. I just prompted an LLM this 🫣

Hey `bundle` if you know what I meant, can you please just run it for me?

Avo 4 is here 🎉 15 months, ~2000 commits, and about 50 teams kicking the tires. It's a full redesign, not a fresh coat of paint. A safer way build your internal tools 🧵

Five files touched to get a fully functional JSON API running from your @avo_hq resources. Not too shabby. You can plug your LLM into your data effortlessly.

In Chrome go to `chrome://flags/#devtools-project-settings` and disable `DevTools Project Settings`. This will make Chrome stop accessing `/.well-known` paths and pollute your console output 😌

Who's coming to Rucoco in two weeks? Krakow is an incredibly beautiful city, same as the Polish Ruby community. Let's make a Friendly corner for ourselves. 👇

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.

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

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 🌍

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

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" 🫶

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.

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

I've been marketing Avo as an admin panel framework for years. And it's a very good one, but I think it's time to make the distinction 🙌
