On November 13th, the Ruby Argentina community concluded the current year’s agenda of meetups. 2025 was an amazing year for the group, marked by the flow of speakers and sponsors, as well as the organization’s mechanics for each event. The 100% online events, which opened the field to speakers from around the world, such as Jason Swett and Rosa Gutierrez from Basecamp, are all remarkable achievements for the community. Props to the organization team and their fantastic work.
The main talk was given by Fernando E. Silva Jacquier, bringing his point of view about “Expressive coding”, the pros and cons of writing code in a more human way, and the importance of understanding what happens under the hood for expressions that sound the same but behave a bit differently.
After a short break to eat empanadas and drink beers, there were some ⚡ lightning talks ⚡, a space to relax and share whatever you want in 5 minutes or less. Among the highlights were our own Nazareno Moresco sharing his journey understanding the Mayan calendar, which led to a fun side project gem (Mayan), and Gemma Falconi talking about turtles, those lovely and tiny dinosaurs.
Huge thanks to sponsors and organizers (SINAPTIA, Rootstrap, Ombulabs, Eagerworks, Moony, Roxom, Crunchloop, Svitla, and LeWagon) and all the people who made each meeting special. We hope to see you again in 2026.
