    Ruby Upgrades & RAM Shortages

    Chris, Andrew, and David are back together, and the conversation starts out with TV talk, Fallout hype, why some shows overstay their welcome (Prison Break), and the “season one magic” problem (Reacher). Then there’s a big shoutout to Marco’s Rails Luminary win, and a deep dive into AI rabbit holes: self-hosting LLMs, Mac minis, and the looming reality of both token costs and RAM shortages. They discuss the Ruby releases (3.4.8 + Ruby 4.0 preview3), highlighting practical fixes, previewing features like Ruby:: Box, new syntax tweaks, and core classes updates they’re excited about.  Hit download now!  Links Chris Oliver XAndrew Mason BlueskyDavid Hill BlueskyJudoscale- Remote Ruby listener giftFalloutReacherPrison BreakRuby 3.4.8 ReleasedRuby 4.0 Highlights (by Nithin Bekal)Ruby 4.0.0 preview3 Released2025 Rails Luminary-Marco Roth Surprising the 2025 Rails Luminary winner Marco Roth in Zurich (YouTube)Ruby BoxHerbReActionView HoneybadgerHoneybadger is an application health monitoring tool built by developers for developers.JudoscaleMake your deployments bulletproof with autoscaling that just works.Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

    Docker Disasters and Dev Container Journeys

    Andrew kicks off at 8 a.m. with six Docker containers running, and he and Chris dive into what modern Rails development looks like inside dev containers—covering Rails’ own images and features, using Mise and Playwright instead of Selenium, and why OrbStack has replaced Docker Desktop on their Macs. They talk through the trade-offs of running services in containers, the quirks of Kamal’s new local registry, and how Chris is turning all of this into a practical SaaS building series that shows real-world deployment and scaling with tools like JudoScale. Along the way, they weave in life updates about new babies, daycare costs, and even the power needs of AI data centers and nuclear energy.  Press download now to hear more!  Links Chris Oliver XAndrew Mason BlueskyJudoscale- Remote Ruby listener giftWhy Playwright Is Less Flaky Than Selenium by Justin SearlsRails Dev Container Images & FeaturesRuby on MacJudoscale-Process Utilization: How We Actually Track ThatGoRails- Domain Monitor SaaS- Adding the Domain ModelCheeky Pint PodcastSmarter Every Day (YouTube)The DiplomatThe Girlfriend HoneybadgerHoneybadger is an application health monitoring tool built by developers for developers.JudoscaleMake your deployments bulletproof with autoscaling that just works.Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.
