Welcome to CrackedRuby

This website covers various Computer Science and Web Development topics that are frequently looked at through a Ruby-colored lens.

My name is Tom Swokowski (@tomswokowski). This site is a personal space where I share and experiment with random things I’m interested in.

A couple more things:

Why this site?

I’m making this site to express my passion as a software developer and to share my ideas with other like-minded individuals. I also believe that working on complex features that stretch my current ability is the best way to become a better developer.

Why Ruby?

Ruby gets me to keep coming back and wanting to open my computer to read and write it. I don’t feel any other reason or justification is needed.

Is this site just AI slop?

Every word on this website is genuinely written by me. Unless it’s contextually obvious, I’ll be radically transparent if there is any AI-generated text present. A curious viewer can check out the code, which is completely public.
