What questions do you consider important for a Ruby on Rails technical interview?
i'm super confused by "which gems you can't live without". is this my personal debugging collection of pry-rails, bullet and other things? i mean, whatever is required and does the job i guess. i absolutely love Dentaku gem and build awesome stuff with it in 2 different companies where it absolutely contributed to their product in huge ways (https://github.com/rubysolo/dentaku) . i also love Victor (https://github.com/DannyBen/victor) where i draw epic custom charts which are used in reports that been generated for billion dollar real estate funds.

Charts.css
That's not close to the same complexity, is it?
With the HTML + CSS solution, all my program has to produce is a HTML table. Very easy.
With SVG my program has to create not just a data table, but the custom SVG code to paint the actual charts. I'm actually doing that on pc-kombo, https://www.pc-kombo.com/us/benchmark/games/cpu/compare?ids%... shows it, the image is SVG. But it's created with https://github.com/DannyBen/victor/, so my ruby code has to describe all the details of that image, including manually saying how each bar chart should look. Even with the awesome victor library that wasn't all that easy.
Alternative is a JS library that produces the SVG code, but then it's exactly as complicated as with regular JS libraries, it just changes the output.

pHash
I've been using this in a Rails app to detect duplicate image uploads for years. It works really well.

Legal question – license of software that includes GPL 3.0 software
I am the current maintainer (albeit, not a great one, but still a maintainer) the phashion ruby gem (https://github.com/westonplatter/phashion).
I was notified by a user that the current MIT license of phashion may conflict with the GPL 3.0 license of the pHash software included in it. The argument goes that since phashion includes the source code of pHash as apart of its distribution, it needs to also use the GPL 3.0 license.
My question ... is there a licensing conflict between phashion and pHash? If so, what are the options?
NOTE - I realize I'm asking a legal/IP question. I will not treat comments or opinions as legal advice.
What are some alternatives?
