I wrote a brief article on how to use Hotwire Combobox for a minor feature in RubyEvents!

What made this interesting was a combination of requirements: Multi-selection, free-text input, and mapping values for YAML generation.

Give it a read and let me know what you think 👇

Celebrated this woo hoo explosions in the sky day with SCIENCE at the American Museum of Natural History! I had always wanted to bring @alifeeney along and for us to touch Ahnighito- the largest meteor on display in a museum in the world. We touched the meteor- and I learned that rubies glow when exposed to short wave UV C and its called "Super Red"!
The red italian neon glass is called "ruby" and we do back it with red light to make that super red. I must say- the effect is most pronounced with rare earth Yttrium Europium phosphors and argon mercury for pure red light backing it, but its still a "fuzzy red" with the neon fill. Never have I wanted to have ruby jewelry so bad... synthetic rubies. I think I really like red.
Would recommend that museum to any science lovers. Go while you still can- and its pay what you want if your a New York State Resident. Hooray for Science!
NYC fireworks were nice from FDR drive :)

A couple notes on RailsConf next week:

- Day 1: I'll be at the Author's Table (near the Liberty Ballroom) to talk about my Ruby Alchemy book (alchemists.io/books/ruby_alche) from 11:30am to 12:30pm.
- Day 2: I'll be giving my lightning talk on Terminus (github.com/usetrmnl/byos_hanami) at ~5:21pm.

I'll also have a few TRMNLs (usetrmnl.com) to give away for anyone who can fix a bug and/or add a feature. Must be well written and tested to qualify!

Happy to hang out, answer questions, etc.
