this is fun but you are killing speed by not showing the next 2-4 words. I'm not even that fast really 85wpm but having to wait for the next word it is leaving a lot of speed on the table for no reason.

Tim Cook being replaced is long LONG overdue!

yep! I just got it the other day. I upgraded to get the variants but I quickly settled on the Regular which is included with $75 Dev license. It's amazing even using it for non-code like in Obsidian.

If you had to choose one to start would it be Sustainable Rails or Agile Web Development with Rails 8?

Hmm, good question. I think I'd probably start with Agile Web Development with Rails 8.

It's the book I learned originally Rails with more years ago than I care to remember (pre version 1!).

Sustainable Rails is really more about how build bigger projects over the longer term.

i.e. good practice for reducing the churn on model files when you have a larger teams or how to do things with a miniumum of external dependencies.

It's great stuff but you can probably pick that up later if you want to.

BTW I just saw this in browser tutorial from learning Rails[1]. I've not run fully through it but it looks really promising to me.

I've been trying Rails again thanks to Lex and DHH podcast. The official docs are good but have some obvious errors in the code snippets, that were not obvious to me until I asked AI to explain.

Also I was reading the free chapters of the "Ruby on Rails Tutorial" but it still refers and suggests using AWS Cloud 9 which no longer allows new users, since 2024... I emailed the author but they have not replied. At $39 per MONTH it seems a bit much for such an obvious oversight. Seems borderline gauging to me to pay $39 just for the eBook, it is not for sale otherwise AFAIK. And to have the first chapter about getting set up to reference something that has been outdated since July 25th of 2024 does not leave a good impression for me.

I'm not a cheap sob, I will pay for content and books. But when the free content is already out of date... I don't hold much hope for the premium content and chapters at $39mo.

Exactly that podcast episode got me interested also!

anyone make a PDF version of this?

Sounds like it's meant as a living document (they reference github, and it's available here: https://github.com/basecamp/handbook/blob/master/README.md ), so doubtful. You could always clone the repo and "print" them to PDF though, and there's a bunch of results for a quick search of "markdown to PDF" if you want a batch/automatic tool. Actually, it'd be kinda cool to have a PDF version that gets automatically "compiled" every time the repo updates...

So will Adobe put more resources to help their pre-maturely abandoned XD catchup?
