September update from Greg

Hi there,

You haven't heard from me for a while, but here is an update from me. The most important one is that I will be in Austin, at Rails World, if you also attend, come and say hi! If you don't attend, you can watch the opening keynote from DHH on this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V9SxpJpHuus

As for other updates, I published a blogpost this weekend about how I kinda got cancelled from EuRuKo. I also wrote an article about a much more pleasant topic. I noticed a security issue in the documentation of ruby_llm and wrote an explanation of why it can lead to issues: https://greg.molnar.io/blog/innocent-looking-ruby-can-be-dangerous/

And you might already know, but I am on Omarchy user from the early days and with the recent popularity boost of Omarchy, I decided to start a similar weekly digest email about the Linux distro than This Week in Rails. If you use Omarchy, you might want to subscribe, if you don't, maybe you should give it a try, I love it.

Also, I recently released a new version of spektr, the Brakeman like static code analyzer.

These are the updates for now. Don't forget to say hi at Rails World if you are there and hit reply if you want to share with me what's going on with you!

Thanks,

Greg

June update from Greg

Hi, you are receiving this email because you subscribed to the newsletter on my blog.
This is the first time I am sending an update, but I will try to make them more regular in the future by sending a summary of the content I put on the blog and maybe some reflection on things I come across.

If you follow me, you are probably subscribed to my weekly Rails Tricks newsletter too. In the past four weeks, I published the following issues:

I finally had time to test MRSK, the new deployment tool for Rails(or other apps). Since I don't know much about Docker, there were a few things to get familiar with, but I ended up liking MRSK, and I use it to deploy my latest side project(which I will share more about soon).
I documented how to deploy a Rails app with MRSK in this blog post: https://greg.molnar.io/blog/deploying-a-rails-app-with-mrsk/

My kids are on summer break, which makes it difficult, but I want to ramp up my content production this summer, so you will hear more from me!

Until next time,

Greg
