Ruby's language development is off the charts. Also: we talk about programming. Sam and Sean discuss Ruby, auto-formatting, and whether Hash Rockets are good. They bring other languages, such as Go, Rust, and Elixir, into their formatting discussion. Also, Sam shares some work-related news. He's leaving his job at DigitalOcean. Before he goes, he wants to get as much done as possible to give his team the best opportunity to succeed. That's the mark of a truly great manager. But, at the same time, he's looking forward to his next gig! Sam Phippen on Twitter Sean Griffin on Twitter RubyConf Hash Rockets are good actually Justin Searls Ryan Davis

On this edition, Sam shares with me some scary moments from his time at DigitalOcean. Sam tells the tale of a database table that was dropped. https://blog.digitalocean.com/update-on-the-april-5th-2017-outage/ Sam Phippen is a Developer Advocate at Google, and previously an Engineering Manager at DigitalOcean. He's seen his fair share of deep, complex, incidents. He has strong opinions about incident management, postmortem culture, and on call practises. He's sad that he can't hug every cat.

Добрый день уважаемые слушатели. Представляем новый выпуск подкаста RWpod. В этом выпуске: Ruby Upgrading GitHub from Rails 3.2 to 5.2, Presentation of Sorbet: A Typechecker for Ruby, Kafka vs Mosquitto - which tool is better for communication between microservices? и Jon Rowe and Sam Phippen are RSpec's new leads #to_s or #to_str? Explicitly casting vs. implicitly coercing types in Ruby, Nine tips for Rails migration mastery и Browserino - a tool that parses a user agent string into a convenient object to work with JavaScript Trix 1.0.0 - a rich text editor for everyday writing, SystemJS 2.0.0 Release и Grid vs Flexbox: Which Should You Choose? TurtleDB - a framework for developers to build offline-first, collaborative web apps, Tabulator - interactive tables and data grids for JavaScript и Apify SDK - the scalable web crawling and scraping library for JavaScript

In this episode of The Yak Shave, Sean shares the most nightmarish debugging experience he has had in a long time. rails_fast_attributes was down to one failure, which manifested itself as a test where a query was expected to run 269 times, but only ran 265 times. After testing, troubleshooting, and finding the root cause, he determined that it was actually behaving completely fine. Shopify Careers In the Testing Weeds with Sam Phippen and Justin Searls

Co-Organizer of the Open Source and Feelings Conference (https://www.osfeels.com/). Blog (http://kerrizor.com/). Summary Why is Smalltalk the Elizabethan English of programming languages? Why has it been so influential, and how does the programming language you use affect the way you think about programming. On this episode, Kerri Miller and I talk about programming languages and communication, and what we've learned from our most recent programming language adventures. Notes 01:56 - Introduction Twitter Stream (https://twitter.com/kerrizor/status/974391130484752385) Creole Languages (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creole_language) Pidgin (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pidgin) 06:18 - SmallTalk is to Ruby as Elizabethan English is to Modern Day 08:11 - SmallTalk’s History Dealers of Lightning: Xerox PARC and the Dawn of the Computer Age (https://amzn.to/2JxTtss) Squeak (http://squeak.org/) By the way, I did get the Squeak history partially wrong. The original work was done at Apple, and when they went to Disney after that, they downloaded their Apple work as Open Source to continue. (It is possibly named Squeak because they were being wooed by Disney). The technical details are basically right, though. 17:55 - Thinking About Programming and Software Projects in a Flexible Way Sapir-Whorf Hypothesis (http://www.dictionary.com/browse/sapir-whorf-hypothesis) 22:01 - Object-Oriented Programming, Thinking, and Design The Overton Window (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overton_window) 28:37 - Learning New Programming Languages, Concepts, and Techniques The Silmarillion by Tolkien (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Silmarillion) Nothing is Something by Sandi Metz (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OMPfEXIlTVE) Much Ado About Naught by Avdi Grimm (http://www.virtuouscode.com/introduction-to-much-ado-about-naught/) Related Episodes Back in the Testing Weeds with Sam Phippen and Justin Searls (http://www.techdoneright.io/33) Ruby Tapas and Avoiding Code with Avdi Grimm (http://www.techdoneright.io/24) The Elm Programming Language With Corey Haines (http://www.techdoneright.io/17) Special Guest: Kerri Miller.

We talk about long-running test suites: are they bad, or just misunderstood? Does parallel CI solve all testing speed problems, or just some of them? Then we move to a wider view, what does it mean to test your library as part of a larger ecosystem. And, how can we leverage coverage or CI information to make for more useful testing tools over the lifetime of a project.

Episode 004: Testing Summary Sam Phippen, Justin Searls, and Noel Rappin spend this episode talking about the value of test-driven development (TDD) as well as its cost.
