One great thing about collaboration among coworkers who are well-educated in Software Engineering (have university degrees) is even if they end up with disagreements, eventually they will see reason and come together towards producing the best and smartest solutions for customers. On the other hand, when I've worked with devs that had no formal education in Computer Science or Computing related fields (e.g. Math, Physics, Chemistry, Information Systems, etc...), we'd often get into an impasse just because such uneducated devs are often too stubborn and thoughtless about doing what's best for customers. They care more about satisfying their own selfish impulses and preferences than changing them to fit the needs of customers. Fortunately, one such dev didn't last at my current company and was let go 2 years ago due to not delivering good work on time for customers. And, yet he acted like he was the smartest Ruby genius around while always skipping the local Ruby meetup that I hosted in our own company office. What a terrible dev he was! Wouldn't even redeem himself by at least attending or presenting at the local Ruby meetup. The dude was so weird, he'd sometimes shut down debates about Software Engineering decisions completely if others disagreed with him, while acting like a complete dictator who wanted to silence others instead of trying to understand their reason. The crazy thing is he wasn't the first uneducated dev I've encountered who behaved that way. I've encountered quite a few before him who were the same way at previous companies I worked at. I'm not saying there aren't exceptions in uneducated devs. I do run into uneducated devs who generally have good attitudes and behaviors that foster excellence and collaboration. But, I noticed that it's harder to find such professional smart devs among the uneducated compared to finding them among educated Software Engineers. After all, completing university education demonstrates passion, hard work, and success. Not completing university education demonstrates the opposite unfortunately. Lack of sufficient passion for Software Development to go through a 4 year degree (I personally had the best time in my life doing my bachelor's and master's degrees), laziness, and lack of skill in accomplishing success. #ruby #rails #rubyonrails #softwareengineering #softwaredevelopment #collaboration #education #universitydegree #university #degree #code #software #dev

今日は meet_hub_rails のUI改善。 shadcn/uiを導入し、イベント一覧・プロフィール・通知・DM画面などを調整した。 特にDM画面は吹き出しや左右寄せ、時刻表示を追加したことで、一気にサービスらしくなった気がする💬 機能だけでなくUI/UXも大事だと改めて実感した！ #RubyOnRails

The most common Rails UI problem is key-value pair dumping. Half the labels in any Rails app are doing zero work, because a dollar sign already tells you it's a price. Cut the labels the data speaks for. indierails.com/72 #RubyOnRails

Wait... Ruby Enumerators can receive values too? Enumerator#feed allows an Enumerator to pause, accept input from the caller, and resume execution. One of those Ruby features that makes you say: I never knew that existed. rubystacknews.com/2026/06/15… #Ruby #RubyOnRails #Programming

Rails 8 tá ficando sério pra IA embutida. Active Model inference local = você não precisa de API externa pra ter IA no seu app SaaS. O custo por request cai pra centavos. #RubyOnRails #AI #RubyOnRails #AI

I run into a lot of unintelligent posts about AI that claim that everyone has to use it just because it's not going anywhere. No, they don't! Software Engineers can always make their own conscious intelligent decision to avoid using AI, and they'd be just fine without it (just like the ones who skipped the No-code hype 10 years ago), as long as they're delivering useful customer value at a good sustainable pace with a quality higher than that of the competition. AI slop usually undermines quality in fact. By skimming over features instead of taking time to build them right, AI makes devs less competitive not more. It might give the illusion of productivity at first until problems catch up and devs end up paying back all the productivity they thought they had and then some. Smarter strong Software Engineers can avoid this problem entirely to begin with. That sort of smart instinct is what distinguishes strong Software Engineers from weak ones in fact. #ai #slop #aislop #artificialintelligence #softwareengineering #softwaredevelopment #ruby #rails #rubyonrails

Are you a Rails Mid-Level looking for a job? This will give you an advantage on a crowded market: Here is a FREE ready-to-use flashcard deck and mock-interview workflow for preparing for a mid-level Ruby on Rails technical interview. This will turn your coding agent in a interview prep machine. It turns Rails interview research into active practice. It includes: - AI-generated and curated Rails interview research in ai-research/ - 78 scored flashcards in flashcards/ - realistic mock-interviewer instructions in AGENTS.md - a coverage tracker in context/covered.md - questions that cover theory, coding, debugging, architecture, system design, and behavioral communication - and add some coding challenges so you have all your bases covered. The goal is not passive reading. The goal is to practice explaining Rails concepts clearly, coding without AI assistance, and receiving strict feedback until answers become interview-ready. Happy studying, and I wish you success in your next job! #RubyOnRails #JobSearching #InterviewPrep
