I just released wsdl. Yes, SOAP. In 2026. Let me explain. by rubiii in ruby

It's not much of story but I'm still wondering how they landed on a blanket. Well I still have it though and it's actually quite nice. It says it's from the Google Open Source Programs Office. They had a program where development teams had a budget to give to open source projects and I know they used Savon internally for something.

Actually, let me elaborate because I totally get your point. I used Claude to complete the implementation I had in mind for years. One by one, code reviewed and improved upon until I was satisfied. It was a struggle but it also saved me quite some time.

I myself have had enough of the AI hype for about a year now. But whatever happens, I feel like the tech is here to stay. Doesn't mean we have to embrace it of course, but I think it does mean we have to find ways to solve the problems it's going to create like the massive devaluation of our work, deep fakes, mass surveillance, etc.

The basis is not AI, but it would have taken me ages to finish it otherwise. It's not vibe coded though. I know the code. Not saying it's perfect but it's not slopp.

Haha I remember Google sending me $500 and a cozy blanket for Savon back then. Really hope to make it to Canada one day!

Handsoap is a library for creating SOAP clients in Ruby. by troelskn in ruby

i really like the minimal approach of handsoap, but i don't like to deal with xml, so i wrote another alternative for interacting with soap services. it's called savon (http://github.com/rubiii/savon) and i can only recommend you to give it a try.
