🎙️@GriffinTess @rmrubyconf – “Learning Empathy From Pokémon Blue” @ @thoughtbot

- Hardware limits shaped elegant tradeoffs
- Legacy constraints teach respect for modern guardrails

“It wasn’t bad code. It was tight code, pushed to the limit.”

[Rocky Mountain Ruby Conference @rmrubyconf]

And remember, for those of you still around tomorrow, you have more options to continue the party!

Come by Rayback Collective anytime for Code && Coffee. Then join Boulder Ruby at 6 pm at Viget for another great presentation by Scott Werner!

@c_sonnier It was so much fun as usual! I didn't post anymore because I was too captivated 😅🥲

Aww yeah we're kicking off another round of Who Wants to be a Ruby Engineer?!

[Rocky Mountain Ruby Conference @rmrubyconf]

Thank you Travis!

[Travis Dockter @travis_code]

@rmrubyconf was awesome! First time for me and met a bunch of incredible people and left inspired to code more. Definitely already looking forward to next year.

[Rocky Mountain Ruby Conference @rmrubyconf]

Good evening, Rocky Mountain Ruby! We'll will be sharing media, updates, and videos in the next few weeks, but for now, thank you for all the camaraderie and making Bekki cry!

[Rocky Mountain Ruby Conference @rmrubyconf]

One more thank you for all our sponsors -for funding, in-kind donations and services, and podcasts for spreading the word! ♥️💎

[Rocky Mountain Ruby Conference @rmrubyconf]

Thank you for sharing your time in preparing and presenting! Great crop of lightning talks this year!

[Rocky Mountain Ruby Conference @rmrubyconf]

More lightning talks! Importantly, many of our sponsors send devs, who are represented here talking about their own passion projects (Caribou, Checkr, Meraki)

[Rocky Mountain Ruby Conference @rmrubyconf]

Some highlights of all our lightning talks! (part 1)

[Rocky Mountain Ruby Conference @rmrubyconf]

We're so very excited to have André Arko (@indirect.io) with us today presenting what makes and keeps an app production-ready.

... and I hear he'll be back on the stage for lightning talks too!

Recapping our AI conversations so far this week, Christine Seeman blends Rush 🎸 in asking how we blend a thoughtful Rubyist mentality 👥 with a future of GenAI usage 🤖

[Rocky Mountain Ruby Conference @rmrubyconf]

What a great question to ask to keep us thinking, thank you!
