Shane Becker @veganstraightedge.com · 28/09/2026I hope to land a much bigger (but still reasonable) PR next. Making the HTTP parser a plugin-able option. So that one could BYO a HTTP parser written in Ruby (or Rust!). In addition to the built-in C and Java defaults. 000

Shane Becker @veganstraightedge.com · 24/09/2026Why do video creators love their mic audio clipping in the red so much? You don't have to yell. You have a public adress system. Often in a controlled contained environment. Like, people are intentionally sounding a drive-thru speaker. 000

Shane Becker @veganstraightedge.com · 20/08/2026ah I didn't realize the one liner was possible. that's neat. heard about complex types. 👍🏻 000
Shane Becker @veganstraightedge.com · 20/08/2026heard, chef. thanks for the link/reference. the thing that I don't like in rbs-line et al, is the: comment as separate line/s. to me, it reads less expressive. to me, same line magic comment reads like the rest of the sentence. simplest comparison: #: () -> String def foo def foo # -> String 100
Shane Becker @veganstraightedge.com · 20/08/2026oops. the variable line is meant to be in both examples. the outcome is the same tho ❌ foo = :x case foo in :x then :abc end ✅ foo = :x case foo in :x then :abc end 100
Shane Becker @veganstraightedge.com · 20/08/2026I'm surprised to see that in #Ruby this is a syntax error: ❌ as a one-liner: foo = :x case foo in :x then :abc end # ✅ as a multi-liner case foo in :x then :abc end 100
Shane Becker @veganstraightedge.com · 20/08/2026Idea for (return/output) type annotation on #Ruby methods: magic comment on "end" of `def` ```ruby def foo(bar) # -> User @baz end def foo(bar) = @baz # -> User ``` 1. Valid Ruby today 2. NOT `=>` convention we use for "executed result" 3. Optional&checkable 4. Readable as dev docs 5. Pretty! 200
