If you’re a @Nedbank client, and like me have jumped in fright because their online banking invokes the voice of your scary Std 5 Maths teacher to warn you about session timeouts… Oh boy, have I got something for you. Settings -> Accessibility -> Session Timeouts. Toggle off.

This is me, not just to compensate for shitty audio mixing but also dogs barking every time an insect twitches.

Satish was one of my tutors alongside @citizen428 and @kotp all the way back in 2011. I can draw a line from him through to my success today. This is terrible news. Rubylearning.com *literally* changed my life.

Today I received some sad news: Satish Manohar Talim, @IndianGuru, one of my good friends from the Indian Ruby community and friend to many developers in the broader software community, has become very ill over the past two years and is now in hospice. 1/

What's it called when you have a production issue, so you add a bunch of observability to track it down, and once you do, you no longer have the issue? Like, at all?

I don’t think folks will ever truly know what this man has done for FIFA players in South Africa: The work he does & the sacrifices he makes. @Micks_Sticks these crazy adventures are the best when you’re around 😂 Some of us know. And we appreciate it!

TIL the docker image for an app we're building is 19MB larger than it needs to be cos some ruby gems bundle every file in their repo into the gem, instead of only files needed to run the gem. Do this instead: til.zero-one.io/posts/6j0p6o…

Today I Learned: How to correctly specify files when building gems

I recently found one of my docker images had 19MB of test files in the Ruby gems directory. When building a docker image, you want it as small as possible.
