For a decade (2014-2024), I was a Ruby-only developer. I worked across the Ruby ecosystem—from Rails development to Ruby’s core tooling like IRB, RDoc, and the debug gem. But while I moved around the stack, I stayed within Ruby’s boundaries. Ruby wasn’t just my primary language; it was essentially my only language. That changed in 2025. This year, I’ve contributed to Sorbet (C++), worked on RBS’s parser (C), and am now diving into ZJIT (Rust). A combination of factors enabled this shift—someth

Vision is our most important sense, which makes taking care of it essential. 93 million American adults are at high risk for serious vision loss, but only half of them have visited an eye doctor's office in the last 12 months, according to the CDC.
