Hello everyone,

mostly thanks to the folks from Ruby Europe we have a special event for you focusing on Ruby and AI.

It's on our website with more details here: https://www.rug-b.de/events/special-ruby-europe-ruby-ai-meetup-1706

Noteworthy, this event requires registration on this meetup page: https://lu.ma/286b35qd - which is also the more authoritative site with information on the event.

Since it's so close to our normal meetup slot on July, we won't be having a July meetup - consider it our July meetup.

Cheers,
Tobi

Hey,
Any chance of joining hybrid?
Wish I was there, but accomodation is meh.

The AI alignment is great for what we're doing with ToTravelTo.com with promoting low-carbon travel, by making it easier to plan long-distance train travel around Europe - with Generative AI. And yep. Of course it runs on Rails :) Is that Ruby On Rails, on rails?

There's much to be done, and our team of volunteers has done well to get the instagram and facebook community and waitlist growing. Join the wait-list to monitor progress & get monthly travel news:  https://bit.ly/4dgSwTo (Investor interest starts when we get to 1,000 people)

We'd love a regular front-end orientated Rails dev onboard for a couple of hours a week, if there's a sustainability oriented, or train traveller out there. BONUS. 

The focus is on marketing and growth right now, but really want to spend more time on dev in September. Perhaps I'll do a mob for it and see who wants to attend. Ahh fork it, this isn't public public, but you can see how much we have to do!! http://chat.totravelto.com/community/conversations/new (Turning off temporarily on June 15th)

Accidentally made a live event translator 'mob' from malaga.rb, for Spanish to English captions, and got in the papers in Spain, with Ruby/Sinatra!! Incase anyone wondered what the guy with the red checked shirt was up to these days in Málaga.

First, I need to find survival consultancy money for July and August. I will head north - happy to go wherever there is accomodation for 2 months. Do you have a need for me at the moment? More about me, here: http://www.linkedin.com/in/alteris  

In the wider AI space, it would be awesome to collaborate on a loveable.dev for ruby on rails. Debugging React now, and would love some developer happyness of rails. Anyone got something in progress?

Excuse the verbose and chatty reply, it feels like Ruby died in Berlin, but I am very excited to see it back. Happy to share on LinkedIn also.Go Go goo. Hope it inspires some excited posts on ruby and ai in the very near future. Looking forward to reading more on the list :)

Cheers,
Ian.

Hi Tobias,

if you outsource the Event, please not to people using „hey guys“ in 2025. RoR Community was much more advanced 10 years ago.

LG, Chiara

Hi Chiara,

I'm sorry and sad that this happened. I couldn't make it yesterday and otherwise would have intervened, as it clearly doesn't meet our community standards. I'll talk to the main organizer.

The event also wasn't "outsourced" - it was an event in collaboration with Ruby Europe - they wanted to do an event in Berlin and were looking for our support (which as a Ruby community I think we should). It was also helpful to me as around the time of a July RUG::B I'll be at a funeral - so safe to say my head is elsewhere.

As I know the main orgas from other events I falsely assumed we were aligned on standards on inclusivity, that's on me.

Have a good day,
Tobi
