would you rather eat a sponge (from the grocery store. fresh. but still a sponge) or have your hair replaced with cool whip for a month. (if you wash it off it grows back. it will be messy)
@alexanderadam.bsky.social has a very famous and very special copy of the poignant guide It is filled with countless amounts of art and poetry and notes from people in the community (including Matz!!) Today I was honoured to make a contribution

@evanphx.dev do you still have a copy of the old RubyForge DB? From a Ruby History perspective I would find it interesting to host a readonly/archived version of the site. Preserving discussions, forums, etc.

For Noah. * v0.5 * Scarpe now has a site - complete with Shoes documentation and our robust Scarpe architecture documentation scarpe-team.github.io/scarpe/ * Improvements, features and bugfixes: github.com/scarpe-team/...
Noah Gibbs was the largest engineering force behind Scarpe the last few years of his life. In honor of his memory I will be doing some hacking on it Christmas Eve. If you’d like to hack on it as well (LLM it up if you’re new!) I can refine some nice user-friendly issues.
