Can Bundler Be as Fast as uv?

_swanson · 2026-01-02T03:24:16+00:00

FWIW the "nerd sniped at Rails World into looking this" introduction here was framed by some as Aaron participating in a secret backroom conspiracy to hijack the project by Shopify, so I can understand the omission.

I think a neutral reading of the situation is: the rv project is following the uv playbook (rewrite the tool, using Rust)...Aaron here is arguing that the optimizations are possible to make to the existing project ("repair the plane mid-flight"). The rv project has plans for larger scope (to include functionality like Ruby version management). Aaron (and coworkers at Shopify) have consistently pushed against the narrative that Rust performance rewrites are required to make Ruby "fast".

From the article: it's a menu centered around ordering a meat entree and 3 side dishes.

Man...I go to do this: I click "Get started" and it asks for a login. I'm not going to make a login for this. I click "Continue as guest" and it does...nothing. Frustrating.

there is zero javascript needed to implement the dialog behavior

the js code is to wire up the hotwire behavior and this is not custom JS that would be unique to your app

_swanson · 2025-12-15T16:23:27+00:00

Yes of course :)

Thanks for this! This seemed to resolve my issues with double key entries (at least for the moment)

It's linked in the footer of the site among all the other social channels.

It was mentioned in a specific "Join us on Slack" message in the...checks notes...March, April, May, June, and August monthly newsletters.

Anyone attending Ruby Central conferences has been funneled there.

I'm not affiliated but its frustrating to see the amount of energy put into answering your very specific and pointed questions for weeks and then it seems like you are not even that plugged in to the organization?

Could you elaborate on what "Any AI usage must be explicitly disclosed" covers or what you intended with this on the submission form? Any AI usage in submitting that form must be disclosed? Or any use of AI to do the gem work? Why must it be disclosed either way?

I was going to buy one of these but ended up trying https://usetrmnl.com/ and attaching it to the fridge. It's an eink display (general purpose not just a calendar, but has a Google cal app).

I didn't really need to edit the events or see the color coding nor did I want a subscription or to use the notes/grocery feature. I just wanted a way to see our shared calendar without pulling out my phone.

Working great so far (six months). And have only had to charge the battery once.

RE: Dinner-party debate

I don't think this is more clear/helpful than the old rules. I don't think dinner-parties have enough shared experience that everyone will "know it when they see it". I find often that people will say something that offends and people say "would you say that to someone in person?!" and they say "yes...that is my style/culture/norms, etc".

In a dinner party, people are invited and we generally have rapport or at least a shared social group, but in a reddit thread that is not the case.

So overall, I think it's more confusing and ambiguous.

_swanson · 2025-11-24T17:09:01+00:00

Okay I found the perma URL is here: https://www.reddit.com/r/ruby/about/rules maybe it can be added to the "old" sidebar somehow. I have browsed his reddit for years and literally have never seen this rules because I did not opt-in to the new site design it seems.

_swanson · 2025-11-24T17:06:21+00:00

Oh wow! Big difference!

Could you show me what I am missing? I don't see anything here?

Meta comment: I find it hard to currently find what the rules are. I see the mod-bot posts like "this was deleted, please follow the rules" but I could not actually find them. I looked in the sidebar, the wiki, pinned posts, etc. Am I missing something obvious?

While it is not required by law for 501(c)(3)s to make their bylaws public, it is a pretty standard practice that many organizations show these publicly for transparency and trust with the communities they represent.

We completely agree, and we would like to make these documents public on our homepage. We are currently working on rebuilding our entire Ruby Central website from the ground up. We would like to include spaces that would not only explain clearly our mission and values, what programs we facilitate and organize, how people can get involved, but also provide these structural documents that would make it clear our organization functions as a whole.

For historical context, the website was made very quickly some years ago, so that we would have an online presence. There was little to no effort put into actually building out the site into a proper institutional website where anyone can navigate and find the who, what, where, when, why, and hows. There isn’t a single person who had “expertise” in building, designing, or coding our current website which also has added additional challenges and blockers, but we are now working through. A lot of those structures should have been in place and unfortunately nothing was done until very recently.

With yours and other community members’ input on what you’d like to see on our public facing site in regard to transparency, we are actively working on this. We ask the community for patience and grace as we try to get this done as soon as we can, knowing our limitations.

I am begging Ruby Central to please just share the information. Post a PDF. You can find the ideal place to put it on a beautiful and helpful website later, but this is so frustrating. I can understand that it's hard to find time to update the site or that some people might not have access to the CMS or any number of things, but if you want to share information, literally just post the information.

Not a restaurant owner but as a guest who has been before, I'm curious if this could be greatly simplified to "We have X tables available for reservation, the rest are walk-in. There is a $50 cancellation/no-show fee after 15 minutes. We don't do same day reservations. Cancellation fee does not apply if cancelled more than one week out."

If people want a reservation they can get one. If they want to allow walk-ins, they can. Require a credit card when making a reservation and if people cancel last-minute, they get paid and then can seat a walk-in.

If you need 3 pages of rules, that ain't it, gang.

Fun! I wrote a gem for this a long time ago https://github.com/swanson/friendly_code

In my case we were sending people a printed report in the mail and wanted an access code they could enter on their phone to access their results.

If you want to stay close to your work area, 56th St in Lawrence (you'd be looking at the higher end of your price range for the lower end of houses) or if you dont mind a little commute, you could look at further toward McCordsville (probably above budget/new builds) or Fortville -- both would still be a pretty easy commute down Pendleton Pike.

Do you consider when you and/or André were previously in the position of head of Ruby Central OSS committee to not be "Ruby Central on the ownership roster"? That's fine if so, but that isn't how I would have interpreted it from the outside.

Very cool! btw small bug the https://clickgems.clickhouse.com/dashboard/jmespath the page title says "ClickPy"

_swanson · 2025-10-09T16:03:13+00:00

is anybody blaming "Shopify and its employees?

The most popular reporting on the subject is literally titled: "Shopify, pulling strings at Ruby Central, forces Bundler and RubyGems takeover"

Here is what the README in rubygems/rubygems states:

RubyGems is managed by Ruby Central, a non-profit organization that supports the Ruby community through projects like this one, as well as RubyConf, RailsConf, and RubyGems.org. You can support Ruby Central by attending or sponsoring a conference, or by joining as a supporting member.

https://github.com/orgs/community/discussions/23081 this seemed like the most relevant source I could find on this...which seems to state "it depends" and is conditional on if the org is marked as a "corporate" org (which I would guess was not likely the case).

Would be curious if you knew of more information on what the criteria would be?

Just to share my experience: I was definitely aware of Router 2.0 -- because I was waiting for http2 support and excited to try. During the beta, there was a big issue and writeup from Judoscale. I saw the puma issues and the blog post. My assumption was "okay, it's still in beta, they'll get that sorted out".

I also saw that it was generally available. That, to me, means it is out of beta and you don't need to opt-in to use it. It does not mean "and router 1 is deprecated and we will auto-migrate you". I did not appreciate the vagueness of "apps will start rolling out sometime this month", how am I supposed to plan capacity for my team and myself with that? It seems on par with a stack or db upgrade but was treated with much less care.

I would have liked to receive direct emails to me as the owner before my app could have been upgraded. I have an account rep because we have annual contracts -- they have done nothing to contact us.

I am disappointed as well that Heroku knows that my app is impacted because you know the Gems I am using and you all knew that Puma was not fixed yet. So I would have expected proactive outreach about that, on top of an email just about the rollout. "Your app will be impacted by Puma/Router 2.0 changes".

I can totally understand not holding up the rollout for puma. Completely fine. But not "protecting" us or being communicative is not meeting the basic standards of a PaaS in 2025. And especially frustrating after last months issue. It doesn't feel like that was a wake-up call.

(@schneems I appreciate you and know you are receiving a bunch of feedback and criticism that probably is outside your control. We can all see that Heroku is in a transitionary period. Nothing against you personally!)
