Today is a big day for Herb! It's built into Rails 8.2 by default for all HTML+ERB views. My talk at #RailsWorld in Austin today answered three questions: What is Herb? What ships in Rails 8.2? And what does this enable? Herb v0.11 and ReActionView v0.6 released alongside it.

Hey folks, which conferences are you still attending this year? I haven't made up my mind about the next ones but I still want to bring the @whysfoxes.bsky.social conference guestbook somewhere. 😅

I remember #EuRuKo being pretty affordable for people from not-so-wealthy countries. I guess 🇨🇿 #Czechia hit inflation too for #EuRuKo2026. It was nice that most #RubyConferences were affordable for everybody. It made you meet people that otherwise wouldn't have come.

I realized it has been ~1.5 years since I concluded my series of post on JSON optimization. So I got curious how much faster it became since then. 2.7.2 was the last version before I took over maintainership. 2.9.0 was the version I released at the end of the blog series.

The standard libraries already include π. But where’s the fun in that? Happy #PiDay! 🍕

A computer screen displays code for a Monte Carlo simulation using pizza. The background features a grid with pizza splats. The code includes a Python function, `estimate_pi_from_pizza_splats`, with calculations to estimate Pi. On the screen, a message reads: "After 10,000 throws, Pi is served: #result" where #result represents a variable.

Alongside the Ruby 4.0 release last week, I published charm-ruby over Christmas, bringing @charm.land's excellent terminal UI libraries to Ruby. A full TUI framework, reusable components, styled output, forms, markdown rendering, spinners, charts, and a lot more! Demos below ⬇️

A cute, glowing ruby gem with a smiling face, rendered in a pink-purple neon style on a vibrant background. It represents the Ruby language with a Charm-inspired, glamorous CLI aesthetic.

Ruby has a new moving GC. I just merged moving Immix in the MMTk Ruby binding. This is exciting as its the first GC that dynamically detects fragmentation in the heap and performs defragmentation. Performance isn't too great yet but I'm working on it! github.com/ruby/ruby/pu...

I have released Zeitwerk 2.7.4. It improves the performance of some validation logic. This may be measurable in large apps with ignored directories and lots of autoload paths. In Gusto's main application (+20 autoloaders, ~2000 autoload paths), the patch saves 800 ms of boot time.
