[00:00:45] Andrew and Chris chat about security in the Rails community and how it’s the least area of focus for a lot of developers.
[00:03:57] Chris gives a shout-out to Adam McCrea, the Developer behind the Rails Autoscale for Heroku, and how he grew the product over the course of three years and had $300,000 in annual revenue. He was recently talking about it on an episode of “Startups For the Rest of Us.”
[00:05:24] The guys talk about feeling burnt out, Chris going on vacation in two weeks, Andrew needing a massage or float therapy, and good books to read.
[00:11:54] Andrew tells us he is slowly working his way through meta programming Ruby and starting to read how to take smarter notes.
[00:14:18] The topic here is about taking good notes. Learn about a cool app that Andrew likes to use for quick capture called Draft. He also tells us about his Obsidian database you can check out on notes.andrewm.codes. Chris tells us about writing blog posts and using Notational Velocity that stores and retrieves notes.
[00:26:12] Andrew and Chris talk about integrations being the key to the game, especially as no code gets more popular, and coming up with product ideas using no-code apps, and they mention using Zapier, IFTTT, and Automate.
[00:29:34] Chris tells us one of his long-term goals for Jumpstart which has to do with having the ability to send and receive web hooks with Zapier. He mentions to hit him up if you are using Jumpstart Pro and want to integrate with Zapier.
[00:32:17] Andrew asks Chris if he saw the Tweet from Patrick Collison from Stripe about 170% faster Ruby.
[00:38:44] Chris dates himself and has stories to tell that start off with flash drives being popular and a portable apps community he was into. Andrew tells us he somehow figured out the WIFI password every year in high school and got caught. Chris and Andrew share more “high school hacker” stories and expose themselves as 10X Black Hats! ☺
