Panel:
Dave Kimura
Eric Berry
Special Guests: Luke Francl
In this episode of Ruby Rogues, the panel talks to Luke Francl about his article “Upgrading Rails applications incrementally”. Luke works at GitHub on search and has been there since October 2017. Before working at GitHub, he worked at a search startup that was working with Rails and Elasticsearch. They talk about things that people take for granted with search, the impending takeover of GitHub from Microsoft, and what open source looks like today. They also touch on the process of getting hired at GitHub, his process for upgrading Rails applications, and more!
In particular, we dive pretty deep on:
