Live At Rust, Uhh, Rails World 2026
Shownotes
Recorded live from Rails World 2026, Andrew, Chris, David, Jason Charnes, and eventually Andy Croll, unpack the strange mood surrounding this year’s conference. Much of the conversation centers on DHH’s keynote and the increasingly agent-driven future of software development: if AI can write, debug, and even understand the code for us, what happens to the value of frameworks, developer expertise, documentation, and even Ruby itself? They also dig into Hotwire, Active Search, Herb, Active Job Continuations, security concerns around AI-generated software, and what the Ruby community might rally around if the language becomes less central to how developers identify themselves. And because it’s Rails World, there’s plenty of barbecue, conference chaos, bad jokes, and Andy Croll crashing the podcast. Hit download now!
