Ruby Lugdunum (a.k.a Rulu) will be back on June 22 - 23 in Lyon, France. Rulu 2012 is a two-day single-track conference on Ruby featuring great talks, awesome food and time to hack together! CFPs are open and early bird tickets will be on sale on Tuesday! More infos on Rulu.eu.

I just released bundler-auto-update, a ruby gem that updates all gems listed in your Gemfile to the most recent version that does not break your tests.

Jekyll + Amazon S3 = ♥ with jekyll-s3.

We just released a little gem that logs (and stores) all the invalid Active Record objects your database contains. As you add / update ActiveRecord model validations, existing records may become invalid. An invalid record can break migrations, raise weird bugs in production or just prevent a customer from ordering stuff on your webstore. Just add gem 'active_sanity' to your Gemfile, run rake db:check_sanity and go fix your records! More info on the blog post introducing active_sanity or the active_sanity Github project.

I just pushed of gist a 25 lines of code Ruby script that allows you to interact with a remote sh session via Jabber. It's called Jabber-SH and it's like SSH over GTalk!
