    Joe Leo shares his journey as a Ruby developer and how the Ruby community's welcoming and collaborative spirit drew him back after working with other languages. He introduces Phoenix, Def Method's innovative "closed loop" AI platform that autonomously tests and supports Rails applications.

    • Joe founded Def Method, naming the company with help from his wife in 2014
    • Despite using Ruby early in his career, Joe had never attended RailsConf before
    • Joe began with C++, Java, then discovered Ruby through a consulting project
    • Ruby conferences stand apart from others for their community-focused nature
    • Phoenix works autonomously to generate tests based on application code
    • The AI system examines commits, identifies vulnerabilities, and regenerates tests as code changes
    • GoRuCo (Gotham Ruby Conference) had its final run in 2019
    • Artificial Ruby meetup in NYC has become a vibrant hub for Ruby developers
    • Joe will be presenting "Tales from the Brink" at the final RailsConf
    • The joy Ruby brings developers can't be measured but significantly impacts development quality

    Marco Roth joins us to discuss his journey in the Ruby and Rails ecosystem over the past decade, focusing on developer tooling and open-source contributions in the Hotwire ecosystem. We explore his new HTML-aware ERB parser called Herb, the future of the Ruby community beyond RailsConf, and practical advice for sustaining local Ruby meetups.

    • Marco has been working with Ruby and Rails for about 10 years with a focus on the Hotwire ecosystem
    • Herb is a new HTML-aware ERB parser designed for better developer tooling like editors, linters, and formatters
    • Marco will present at RailsConf 2024 about how Herb could enable future view layer improvements in Rails
    • RubyEvents.org preserves and catalogs Ruby conference talks, recordings, and artwork as a community resource
    • Local Ruby meetups don't always need speakers - social gatherings, watching recorded talks, or collaborative coding can be effective
    • Smaller regional Ruby conferences (100-150 people) offer more intimate community experiences than larger events
    • Hack Day at Ruby Central events provides valuable face-to-face interaction with open-source maintainers

    Alan Ridlehoover shares his perspective as both a longtime Ruby developer and conference sponsor, reflecting on the evolving Ruby conference landscape and strategies for maintaining legacy Rails applications.

    • Started with .NET before discovering Ruby and Rails 14 years ago
    • Found learning Ruby and Rails simultaneously challenging, prompting his first RailsConf attendance in 2012
    • Memorable talks at first RailsConf included Sandy Metz on testing and DHH on Russian doll caching
    • Sponsors Ruby conferences primarily for recruiting, with Cisco Meraki managing over 4 million lines of Ruby code
    • Sponsorship benefits include promoting company visibility and filling the recruiting pipeline
    • Moving focus to regional conferences like Sin City Ruby as RailsConf comes to an end
    • Advocates for conferences addressing legacy codebase challenges for applications predating standard best practices
    • Suggests organizations with 15+ year-old Rails applications face unique scaling challenges not widely discussed
    • Proposes potential gatherings around Ruby and AI applications
    • Shares the insight that "trust is the antidote for fear" which helped David overcome anxiety at a conference
