Joe Leo shares his journey as a Ruby developer and how the Ruby community's welcoming and collaborative spirit drew him back after working with other languages. He introduces Phoenix, Deaf Method's innovative "closed loop" AI platform that autonomously tests and supports Rails applications.
• Joe founded Deaf Method, naming the company with help from his wife in 2014
• Despite using Ruby early in his career, Joe had never attended RailsConf before
• Joe began with C++, Java, then discovered Ruby through a consulting project
• Ruby conferences stand apart from others for their community-focused nature
• Phoenix works autonomously to generate tests based on application code
• The AI system examines commits, identifies vulnerabilities, and regenerates tests as code changes
• GoRuCo (Gotham Ruby Conference) had its final run in 2019
• Artificial Ruby meetup in NYC has become a vibrant hub for Ruby developers
• Joe will be presenting "Tales from the Brink" at the final RailsConf
• The joy Ruby brings developers can't be measured but significantly impacts development quality
