This Week in Rails....was a big one, all thanks to 31 contributors. Highlights include: - `ActiveJob::Attribute`: persist typed data between job steps without overriding serialize/deserialize - f.datalist and datalist_tag: native HTML datalist support in form builders - Rails.cache.read("key", delete: true): atomic read-and-delete for Redis (great for OTPs) - params.fetch_values(:a, :b): fetch multiple required params in one call - AR Encryption keys now readable from ENV Read all this and much more in this week's newsletter: rubyonrails.org/2026/5/8/thi…

Fintech Biz Weekly just dropped: Y Combinator & Coinbase invested in a Venezuelan sanctions evasion app linked to the Maduro regime, including, rumors say, the son of Nícolas Maduro: @kontigo_app The story is a LONG one. You know where to find it.

i am convinced that software devs have a speed problem they think the #1 issues is writing code faster... its not. its fixing the code that is already there to stop being utter garbage (as a garbage code connoisseur) quality is really lacking these days, yet quantity has never been higher

Well, it has happened. Ghostty on macOS now has search. This is now in tip releases, I'm certain there's a bunch of polish and bugs to work through over the next months, but more than enough time for it to be rock solid for 1.3 next year. GTK to follow soon. Gobble, gobble. 🦃🦃

Telegram has launched a pretty intense campaign to malign Signal as insecure, with assistance from Elon Musk. The goal seems to be to get activists to switch away from encrypted Signal to mostly-unencrypted Telegram. I want to talk about this a bit. 1/

What I've been up to the past year: make it dead simple for US companies to offer health benefits. Now it's even easier to see the potential cost savings (or better coverage at similar price) with ICHRA before signing up:

In this PSA, Richmond RCMP equates [nearly] killing someone with negligence while operating a multi-ton machine with *being* killed while following all requirements and having the right of way. Acceptance of this framing requires that we become moral imbeciles.

Amazing. After 27 days of continuous action blockading the A12 highway in the Hague, and 9.000 arrests, the Dutch Lower House has asked the cabinet for a pathway toward decreasing fossil fuel subsidies. Excellent work everyone for getting this on the agenda.

Police showed up at Porsha Woodruff’s door in Detroit to arrest her for carjacking. She was 8 months pregnant. The suspect in the crime, committed 2 weeks earlier, was not. Police still charged her in another case of facial recognition tech gone awry. 🧵nytimes.com/2023/08/06/techn…

Meta turned over their DMs, used as evidence to convict them on felony charges for accessing criminalized healthcare. Meta had no choice -- they had the data so had to hand it over. End-to-end encryption keeps people safe. jezebel.com/nebraska-mom-ple…
