MRI stands for MORE RUBY IVENTS, right?
The @balticruby.bsky.social venue is super rad 🤩 And they have a band on stage. And long boards. Mochi and I are so pumped!

I loved this talk when I saw it at Balkan Ruby, and this thread about Jeremy’s process to create it and how to approach talk preparation is just fantastic 🙇🏻♀️ I strongly recommend both. I really look up to him, his talks are some of the clearest, best structured, conducted and delivered I’ve seen! 🤩
It was a pleasure getting to put together a brand new talk for Balkan Ruby. I'm thankful for the opportunity!
This one is about the incremental process of making complex changes to software systems in use.
