As we no longer have @rubyfuza in Cape Town I'm going to consider this.

Dear Rubyfuza Friends, As you may know, Rubyfuza has been a cherished event within our community. However, due to a lack of sponsorships, we are currently facing the risk of not having Rubyfuza 2024 😔

Programmers tend to engage selectively with an event organizer's content on Twitter. They're quick to like or retweet intriguing topics slated for a conference, yet show less interest when organizers discuss sponsorships. Remember, sponsorships are crucial for the success of the events we're invested in. As Ruby and Rails developers, amplifying event visibility is the least we can do. Liking and retweeting is a simple, impactful gesture that supports our community. Let's rally behind calls for sponsorships from @rails, @BalkanRuby, @wrocloverb, @railsconf, @helvetic_ruby, @blueridgeruby, @rubyforgood, @rubydayit, @rubyunconfeu, @balticruby, @brightonruby, @reddotrubyconf, @ruby_african, @madisonruby, @railscamp_usa, @euruko, @friendlyrb, @rmrubyconf, @rubyfuza, @kaigionrails, @rubyconf, @rubyconf_au, @tropical_rb, @visualitypl, @rubybelgium, @rubyconftw, @kaigionrails and countless other fantastic Ruby and Rails events. They are the backbone of our community!

We are very excited to announce that Tim Riley will be our Rubyfuza 2024 keynote speaker! Tim is a core team member of Hanami, dry-rb and ROM, and a Principal Engineer at Buildkite. He’s been writing Ruby for over 20 years and still loves it! #rubyfuza2024 timriley.info

Is it just me, or have there been a resurgence of dormant Ruby/Rails meetups/conferences (like Tropical Ruby, RubyFuza, etc) in the past year or so, accompanied by the emergence of new ones? It's almost as if the Ruby community is experiencing a fresh wave of enthusiasm.

Hello all our wonderful and amazing Ruby friends! We are super excited to share with you that RubyFuza is back. Book the dates 17-18 October 2024 in Cape Town. The Fuza & CFP sites will be updated soon so start thinking about submitting a talk. Cheers ✌️

Devastating, this and @rubyfuza were my two favourite local conferences since I made the move to Cape Town. Thanks all, appreciate what you’ve done in the past!

Whoa! This is a great list.

Found this gem in my bag today (pun intended). Can't wait for the next @rubyfuza conference. Hopefully next year 😁

A great challenge for software developers in South Africa! Please help share bit.ly/crackthecodeSA 🙌🙌 @devconfza @stevenndaye @riggaroo @JoziHub @JoziRuby @rubyfuza @GDGJohannesburg @GDGCapeTown @GeekGirlDee @SaProgrammers @JoziJs @Geekulcha @pamelaahill #CracktheCodeSA

Meanwhile, you can check out our most recent JRuby presentation from @rubyfuza 2020, with @tom_enebo and @headius delivering all the JRuby hits for the excellent South African Ruby community! youtu.be/6c7wXVrYfwo

Here's our presentation from @rubyfuza 2020 showing JRuby webapp performance handily beating all other Ruby implementations! If you're interested in speeding up your apps with JRuby, just let us know! speakerdeck.com/headius/scal…

Rubyfuza and I dunno! Maybe the fine folks at @OfferZen have a couple spare?

1) APM is one of the many free features (if you bring your own hardware 😉) 2) cloud cost is resource based. only pay for how much you need to ingest, store, and search your data. customize it according to your needs with sampling and retention

Recording of the talk I gave earlier this year @rubyfuza on #rails testing is out! youtu.be/oEIWoGqQJFU

That's great. Ping me if you have any questions about #Rails 6. DMs are open.
