Usually it's annoying to see this screen as a user on a production website, but I usually love to see it because I just discovered another Rails app in the wild - especially when it's a local business 😍

I’m definitely a little late to the party, but I just published my 2024 Year-in-Review!

This is probably the most personal blog post I’ve ever written. It’s a deep dive into everything I worked on, what I learned, and how much time I spent on open source (spoiler, it's a lot🙈).

Writing this helped me reflect on how much I love being part of the Ruby, Rails, and Open Source communities.

And it’s motivated me to start sharing more of what I’m working on in 2025.

Testing with Minitest is so much better when the diffs are this clear! 🎨😍

Thanks to @joeldrapper for writing the Ruby bindings for difftastic!

I've been doing a bunch of Swift and Swift UI in the last few days and it's been quite refreshing.

I've been using Ferrum using the pdf method, but I was more looking for a CLI-based utility that doesn't need to open a browser.

Maybe the answer is just that there isn't a real drop-in replacement because it will never be as accurate as opening a browser.

What are people using now that wkhtmltopdf is deprecated?

Is there a maintained fork or a good drop-in replacement?

Some not-so-obvious but game-changing quality-of-life improvements with the new M4 MacBook Pro:

• External screens at full native resolution
• No fan noise
• Running Docker without system lag
• Lag-free screen sharing
• Touch ID on the external Magic Keyboard
• Running iPhone/iPad apps on macOS
• Battery life that lasts more than 2 hours
• ProMotion makes macOS buttery smooth

And of course, the obvious: insane performance gains!

The last MacBook I bought was in 2017. I've been on Intel Macs ever since.

I finally upgraded to the latest M4 MacBook Pro and the difference is night and day. I still can't believe how fast everything is and feels - it's actually absurd.

Excited to get back to work today, now I'm ready to cook in 2025! Let's go!
