Jeff Dickey is back on Remote Ruby, and he's been busy! Andrew and Chris catch up with Jeff to discuss the latest improvements to mise, including precompiled Ruby builds, automatic tool updates, and dotfile management. Jeff also introduces some of his newest projects, including packslip, a new standard designed to make software distribution more secure, and jactionlint, his modernized GitHub Actions linter. The conversation explores everything from managing secrets with fnox and cleaning up massive Rust build caches to running your own CI infrastructure at home. They also dive into AI-assisted development, the future of Ruby performance, and how AI is changing the way open source software gets built and maintained.
