    RE: https://hachyderm.io/@mitchellh/116484051725139878 Same reason I moved the Sidekiq wiki to Sidekiq.org a few months ago. Everyone should be reducing their dependency on github right now.

    RE: https://thepit.social/@peter/116376219055579156 From a compsci POV, they are forcing non-determinism into the software development process when you want it to be predictable and deterministic. GIGO: Garbage In, Garbage Out.

    This retrospective music video from Razor 1911 is a legitimate banger if you knew the warez, mod, demo and BBS scenes in the late 80s. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dybkLM-1eQo

    Config flags are a bane https://00f.net/2026/04/11/config-flags/ (this article remains me I should search for config hacks to remove for Sidekiq 9.0.)

    Ruby 3.4&amp;#39;s new `prism` parser is 2.5x faster than the old `parse.y` parser, according to @eregon. Nice work! https://eregon.me/blog/2024/10/27/benchmarking-ruby-parsers.html

    `bundle up rack-session` if you use it. This is a 10/10 security bug for anyone that uses Rack::Session::Cookie. https://github.com/rack/rack-session/security/advisories/GHSA-33qg-7wpp-89cq

    Hello, my fellow nerds! @sidekiq 8.1.2, Sidekiq Pro 8.1.1 and Sidekiq Enterprise 8.1.1 are now available. The major change is the new `kiq` terminal UI now available. Upgrade and try `bundle exec kiq` to see it in action!

    I see many AI proponents advising &amp;quot;Use it to build all of your own tooling&amp;quot;. This falls apart when people and orgs depend on those tools. Total cost of ownership is: TCO = Cost of creation + (Cost of annual maintenance * years) Does AI make maintenance cheaper? Is it easy to maintain a big pile of AI generated code? GitHub&amp;#39;s downtime chart would suggest the answer is &amp;quot;NO&amp;quot;.

    RE: https://techhub.social/@ironicbadger/116326155409620757 Sure, by migrating it to Azure they made it less stable, but don&amp;#39;t forget they also migrated the UI to React so it&amp;#39;s slower too. Enterprise-ready™!
