The Hidden Gems of Ruby - RUBY 651

Yeah, fair. All right. Well, anything else you all want to dive into here before we do picks? All right. Well, let's go ahead and shout out about some cool stuff. John, do you want to start us off with picks?

Ruby Rogues
The Hidden Gems of Ruby - RUBY 651

Yeah, and so I'm going to pile on that because I was going to pick similar. And essentially, there's an issue in the Rails repo. I think it was introduced yesterday, the issue. And so, yeah, MimeMagic used a list of MimeTypes that was GPL licensed in the gem. And so because of that, yeah, it...

Ruby Rogues
The Hidden Gems of Ruby - RUBY 651

The whole thread is essentially a discussion over this idea of viral licenses and how it does or doesn't ruin software, which I found to be mostly not helpful. Ultimately, there's going to be, you know, They're going to talk. Somebody's going to talk to some lawyers.

Ruby Rogues
The Hidden Gems of Ruby - RUBY 651

They're going to figure out what they're supposed to do and then they're going to fix it so that if you're using rails, you don't have to worry about it. But in the meantime, yeah, just be aware that this is a conversation that's going on. I'm going to see if I can find somebody who is an expert on this stuff so we can do an episode on it. right? Because I'm not an attorney.

I don't know how all this stuff works. I don't know what the implications are. But in the meantime, yeah, it's something to watch for sure. So we'll put a link to the issue in the show notes. And yeah, let everybody kind of

Ruby Rogues
The Hidden Gems of Ruby - RUBY 651

follow up on that but they did actually close commentary on the issue because after the first probably 20 or 30 comments yeah it just kind of devolved into people arguing over what it meant as far as this is good or this is not good and ultimately i think what we need to just see is What are the implications for the Rails community at large?

Ruby Rogues
The Hidden Gems of Ruby - RUBY 651

And, you know, how do we continue to be able to write software the way we write software? Because a lot of these conversations about kind of the social structure of software and the legal structure of software are things that we don't really want to think about. We just want to think about writing code and enjoying technology.

So anyway, yeah, we'll get somebody on who can tell us what we have to care about. Yeah. Yeah, so that's one pick. I was looking back through my Amazon history for some ideas on other things I could pick. One thing that I've really been enjoying lately, I have a soda stream, which is a carbonator. You can make your own soda. They also sell mixes.

Ruby Rogues

And then I just order drink mixes in general off of Amazon. So they have like different fruit flavors and stuff like that. I don't drink alcohol. So it's kind of funny because I get this stuff that people add to their alcoholic drinks that just are the flavors, you know, and we just... carbonate that. So anyway, but I'm really liking it.

They have an energy drink flavor and a cola flavor and a root beer flavor and a, They don't have a cream soda flavor, but you can find one on there that is. I get the sugar flavors because I'm diabetic. So I'm going to pick that. I've really, really been liking having that. And so that's something I'm picking.
