Pito SalasLinked is a good explanation of Ruby ractors, and a reminder that they still exist!<a href="https://salas.com/2025/03/11/whats-the-deal-with-ractors/#concurrency" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://salas.com/2025/03/11/whats-the-deal-with-ractors/#concurrency</a> <a href="https://ruby.social/tags/explainer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#explainer</a> <a href="https://ruby.social/tags/ractor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ractor</a> <a href="https://ruby.social/tags/ruby" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ruby</a> <a href="https://ruby.social/tags/scaling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#scaling</a> <a href="https://ruby.social/tags/performance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#performance</a> <a href="https://ruby.social/tags/software" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#software</a>-engineering

Kerrick Long (code)I have been re-learning <a href="https://ruby.social/tags/Ruby" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ruby</a> and learning <a href="https://ruby.social/tags/Rails" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Rails</a> nights & weekends for the past couple of months.

Ramin HonaryIf you want to learn Gtk programmingNo matter what language you want to use to program your Gtk app, read <a href="https://python-gtk-3-tutorial.readthedocs.io/en/latest/%20" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">the Python tutorial</a> to get started, even if you are not going to write your app in Python.So far it has been the most comprehensive and well-written tutorials I have ever seen for Gtk, and explains important concepts even better than the official documentation does. What applies to Gtk programming Python applies to most any other programming language as well, especially scripting languages, so what you learn from this tutorial will apply to your use case as well.Gtk is a cross-platform GUI toolkit that serves as infrastructure for Linux/BSDUnix desktop environments like Gnome, Cinnamon, MATE, and Xfce. Gtk apps can build and run on Mac OS and Windows without too much difficulty. Though Gtk is written in C it supports very a wide range of programming languages for application programming such as Python, JavaScript, Ruby, Lua, most of Lisp the Lisp family, Java, Vala, C#, even C++ if you are a masochist. Because of this, it never occurred to me that if I wanted to learn more about Gtk programming, I should read a tutorial for one specific language (Python). Now that I have read it, I wish I had known this sooner, so I am telling everyone here on the fediverse.EDIT: I forgot to mention, you can download the entire tutorial locally as <a href="https://python-gtk-3-tutorial.readthedocs.io/_/downloads/en/latest/htmlzip/%20" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">HTML</a>, <a href="https://python-gtk-3-tutorial.readthedocs.io/_/downloads/en/latest/pdf/%20" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">PDF</a>, or <a href="https://python-gtk-3-tutorial.readthedocs.io/_/downloads/en/latest/epub/%20" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">EPUB</a> so that you can hack offline as well!<a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/tech" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#tech</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/software" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#software</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/linux" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Linux</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/freebsd" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#FreeBSD</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/openbsd" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#OpenBSD</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/netbsd" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NetBSD</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/gtk" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Gtk</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/gui" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GUI</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/appdev" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AppDev</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/nativeapp" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NativeApp</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/nativeappdev" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NativeAppDev</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/gnomede" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GnomeDE</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/matede" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MateDE</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/cinnamonde" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CinnamonDE</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/xfce" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Xfce</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/python" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Python</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/lua" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Lua</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/lisp" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Lisp</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/javascript" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#JavaScript</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/ruby" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Ruby</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/lua" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Lua</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/java" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Java</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/valalang" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ValaLang</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/schemelang" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SchemeLang</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/cplusplus" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CPlusPlus</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/gcc" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GCC</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/macos" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MacOS</a> <a class="hashtag" href="https://fe.disroot.org/tag/mswindows" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MSWindows</a>

Pito SalasLinked is a very useful article comparing FastAPI with Django. I’ve been a long-time Ruby on Rails developer, having developed a lot of expertise using that framework and genuinely loving it. However, for very practical reasons, I recently switched to Python. This article is highly instructive in explaining the pros and cons of Django versus Fast...<a href="https://salas.com/2025/01/14/django-vs-fastapi-an-honest/#compare" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://salas.com/2025/01/14/django-vs-fastapi-an-honest/#compare</a> <a href="https://ruby.social/tags/review" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#review</a> <a href="https://ruby.social/tags/fastapi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#fastapi</a> <a href="https://ruby.social/tags/ruby" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ruby</a>-on-rails

HaileyI'm open for Ruby on Rails contract work in 2025!I'm an experienced systems and performance engineer with deep knowledge of Rails and the Ruby VM, and I have code committed and CVEs credited in both projects. I am also highly proficient with web tech, databases, and Linux systems.I've worked at every layer of the stack from kernel to browser frontend, and I'm comfortable with cracking open the code to answer questions the documentation doesn't.From 2013 to 2018 I worked on systems and performance at GitHub, where I led efforts to upgrade the main Rails app from Rails 2.3 to 3.2 (old heads know) and from Ruby 1.9 to the 2.x series.I'm based in Melbourne, Australia and am experienced and comfortable working remotely, however I am also open to hybrid arrangements if you're local.Available for immediate start on short-to-mid-term contracts.
