As a Go developer, I’m surprised Crystal isn’t more popular
What's holding me back from going all in with Crystal is I have a lot of pre-existing Ruby code, and porting Ruby code to Crystal can be tricky. For example, Crystal lacks an Enumerator class (aka generators) due to captured block semantics. I also wish the shards ecosystem was a little more mature; for example there's multiple HTML parsing libraries, but none have all of the features that Ruby's Nokogiri has. For new greenfield backend projects, I would totally use Crystal.

Two months into learning Ruby, it is the most beautiful language I ever learned
Welcome! Ruby isn't exactly "dying", but the hype/popularity is definitely fading. This is primarily because Ruby is no longer "new", most of Ruby's popularity came from Rails, and now Rails is no longer the "new hotness". However, Ruby still has lots of awesome features and lots of awesome other libraries and frameworks, such as the new fancy irb gem that uses reline, nokogiri, chunky_png, the async gems, Dragon Ruby, SciRuby, Ronin, and the new Hanami web framework.

Ditch Your Version Manager
Mike has worked hard over the years to have Nokogiri come with its dependencies. It does come with libxml and all that is required.
From https://nokogiri.org
> These dependencies are met by default by Nokogiri's packaged versions of the libxml2 and libxslt source code, but a configuration option --use-system-libraries is provided to allow specification of alternative library locations.
Some authors work hard to have their tools do the right thing and consistently.

Web scraping with rails
If the page is rendered as html you can use Nokogiri. It has great support and is pretty easy to get started with too.

Nokogiri 1.12 supports HTML5 parsing (after assimilating Nokogumbo)
And even now, pulling in a Java-based HTML5 parser is still probably easier than re-implementing in FFI, which is why I created https://github.com/sparklemotion/nokogiri/issues/2227 and would love to have this the conversation there if possible.

What JSON Serializers are you using with rails ?
Hi guys, I know that Hotwire is the sh*t in rails nowadays, but if you were to build an API with rails, which serializer would you use ? I have my eyes on jsonapi-serializer with oj , but I am not sure if that is the best option nowadays. The jsonapi-serializer repo is a bit confusing, regarding which version should I use, same for ActiveModelSerializer to be honest.

Hunting down spooky JSON module redefinition via Oj
I knew that our app was using Oj for JSON serialisation. But I didn't initially notice anything spooky about pretty_generate. A colleague of mine (shoutout Iain) had keener eyes and pulled up the C file that dealt with something spooky sounding in mimic_json.c.
