If you’re going to RailsConf next week and are interested in pairing on HotwireCombobox during day 2’s Hack Spaces—I’ve written up some ideas for what issues we could work on. We can also work on whatever else, or just chat. Hit me up at the teal station from 10:00AM ~ 12:40PM.

Screenshot of the GH issue linked in the thread. A list of ideas we could work on.

Indenting private methods tells you what the intended access policy is without having to orient yourself inside the class. Specially useful when reviewing diffs and you’re not even shown the full context by default. This is why it’s my preference in Ruby.

Here’s post 2 in my Object-Oriented Rails series. Post 1 argued business logic doesn’t belong in active jobs. But it lacked some code examples. Now we put pen to paper explaining how to move the logic into the model and out of your job. Also, email newsletter is live! jose.omg.lol/posts/just-w...

I’m kicking off a series of blog posts called "object-oriented Rails". First off — why business logic doesn’t belong in active jobs. Let me know what you think! jose.omg.lol/posts/its-no...

Guess it was necessary lol

Two commit messages.
First one reads: "Unnecessary include". CI failed.
Second one reverts the first one. CI passes.

Wrote some words about this code snippet _Code can be context-aware — because programmers can (and should be) context-aware_

class Project < ApplicationRecord
after_save_commit :grant_access_to_everyone

private
def grant_access_to_everyone
accesses.grant_to(account.users) if all_access_previously_changed?(to: true)
end
end

Really enjoying this setup which lets me route LLM prompts to different models by flipping a switch. Makes it easy to experiment.

use_o1: &use_o1
provider: OpenAI
model: o1-preview

use_claude_sonnet: &use_claude_sonnet
provider: Anthropic
model: claude-3-5-sonnet

determine_a_b_c:
<<: *use_o1
messages: # ...

write_x_y_z:
<<: *use_claude_sonnet
system: # ...
messages: # ...

Been building a ton for AI lately. It still involves lots of traditional coding. Architecture, modeling, provisioning, monitoring, it's almost like building a regular app — with many more network calls.
