The San Francisco Ruby Conference (@sfruby.com) just concluded and I'm incredibly honored and grateful to have been part of it.
The conversations, ideas, and encouragement over the past few days were a reminder of how special the energy of the Ruby community really is! ♥️

We need to be louder! Surprisingly few people in the broader engineering community understand that Ruby powers a disproportionally huge amount of Bay Area's most successful startups. From GitHub and Stripe to Chime and Stackblitz, Ruby powers teams that go HUGE with less.

In the age of LLM agents, the intruder is already inside the house. If you're running Claude Code in dangerous mode, a prompt injection attack is one bash call away from exfiltrating almost anything that's unlocked on your machine, or using your (auth'd) gh cli to steal your repo
