Has anyone seen this issue with AWS RDS Aurora MYSQL?
Under heavy loads, the database returns an incorrect response (the response was supposed to be delivered to a different connection for a distinct query)—mismatched responses to requests.
Netscape turns 30 this October.
If you recognize this splash screen, you’re officially permitted to feel old.
I have started sponsoring Servo on GitHub.
As Mozilla Mozillas harder than anyone has ever Mozilla'd before I am more excited by the idea of 4th browser engine instead of a 200th meme browser that puts bookmarks on the blockchain or whatever.
Will this pay off? Who knows!
Please don't tell me about your favorite meme browser.
I'm just gonna say what a lot of us have been noticing this year.
Had an amazing time at #BrightonRuby!
Big thanks to @andycroll for another fantastic event with great talks and conversations. I loved every moment and can’t wait to see everyone again next year.
Kudos to all the speakers! #Ruby

Whether in a data center or cloud, SaaS companies have lots of things that need to be managed. And patched. And upgraded.
Too often, these activities are treated as projects, instead of part of the lifecycle of software or infrastructure. It's as if security (or whomever) turns on the Check Engine light in the car which needs a response, instead of like a commercial aircraft, where parts are always just replaced, no warning lights needed.

Started trying out @kaspth's Associated Object gem, and I'm really digging it as a way to organize model logic. I'm only scratching the surface of using it so far, but it's delivering as advertised. https://github.com/kaspth/active_record-associated_object
Was having so much fun, I started a rough generator to make it a little faster, and Kasper already polished it up and created a PR. https://github.com/kaspth/active_record-associated_object/pull/23
You laugh so you don’t cry
@esm omg
Sometimes I like to think of Tim Cook being startled awake in the middle of the night and shouting “Jesus Christ we forgot about the iPad mini again!”

Hate LinkedIn all you want, but this is an S-tier shitpost.
Anyone used GoodJob in place of Sidekiq? Any thoughts?
@fredbrooker @dansup @Mastodon do the same maths for web apps... 50% of the web are basic Wordpress websites. Ruby is used also more for apps.
