Benjamin Wood @benjaminwood.bsky.social · 11/04/2025Joel Spolsky wrote this in 2002: "Code generation tools which pretend to abstract out something, like all abstractions, leak, and the only way to deal with the leaks competently is to learn about how the abstractions work and what they are abstracting" 161

Benjamin Wood @benjaminwood.bsky.social · 21/11/2024I feel that Rails controller actions should be directly responsible for rendering or redirecting. That is to say, you shouldn't render/redirect six method calls deep/buried in some concern. I don't think this is a hot take, but this rule is broken so commonly I'm beginning to wonder. Thoughts? 6100

Benjamin Wood @benjaminwood.bsky.social · 10/11/2024What a legend. Jim taught me this some years ago. Those good deeds often do come back around, but if that’s your motivation, it’s not genuine. Do it because you love people and want them to succeed! 160
Reposted by Benjamin WoodJulian Cheal @juliancheal.dev · 25/10/2024Howdy! Thought I'd write an intro, as I'm new here. Some of you know me, some of you don't (yet). I'm a Rails dev consulting and SaaS building. When I'm not coding, I love making music soundcloud.com/juliancheal, and cooking (mostly Mexican food) I am also a trustee of a UK charity www.protect.earth 6266
Benjamin Wood @benjaminwood.bsky.social · 24/10/2024Hey everyone 👋 - it looks like intros are a thing here, so here it goes! I'm a long-time technologist (nerd) living in the Pacific NW. I'm building an intelligent test runner (selective.ci) in my spare time. During the day, I work at ClickFunnels as a principal software engineer. Let's be friends! 💚 2314
