    In OSS, there are no sprints, stand-ups, retrospectives, 1:1s, 360s, quarters, velocities, estimations, deadlines, project managers, "how is this going", year goals, ..., could go on and on. Yet it ships non-stop and runs the world.

    I have been working from home for the last +18 years. 2006–2009 as co-founder and CTO of a Rails agency. 2009–today as a freelance. Best of all, I have been present for her.

    Zeitwerk stays at 0 issues, 0 PRs. Issues or even questions in Rails related to autoloading have virtually vanished. It is going to be the only loader in Rails 7. It is integrated in Hanami 2.0, and loads dozens of gems. Was worth it.

    GitHub has migrated to Zeitwerk, that is so epic 🎉💪🎉💪🎉💪🎉💪🎉💪🎉. Every time I hear about the progressive wins in the GitHub code base since the 3.2 days (I think), I can't but think about @eileencodes huge effort behind it, hard battles, step by step ❤️.

    In the N+1 problem, we first fetch the 1, and then the N. Therefore, it should be the 1+N problem. I'll die on this hill.

    Zeitwerk has surpassed 200 million downloads, and it is fetched about 400K times per day (this includes CI builds, deploys, etc.). Besides Rails apps, +360 gems load with Zeitwerk nowadays, designing for any Ruby project was worthwhile. And it has no known bug 💪.
