**Adam Stacoviak:** Well, I discovered these Wagyu hot dogs... And these Wagyu hot dogs - I'd never had Wagyu hot dogs like this ever in my life. We had some friends over for the 4th of July this year, and they brought them. It's like a tradition for them. Like, "Sure. Sweet. I'll cook them." And so they brought their ... |
**Jim Remsik:** I mean, thankfully -- well, you all are... This is afternoon for you two. Which would be about close to lunch. Yeah, I just bought, probably three months ago, a Weber Smokey Mountain. And so I've been smoking up a storm in the backyard. |
**Adam Stacoviak:** \[58:01\] Well, we can we can talk about that in the after show, for sure. I will talk about barbecuing with you all day long... Because it is one of my passions. So xoruby.com... This is like pretty much tomorrow you kick off. Are your bags packed? |
**Jerod Santo:** Yeah, it's soon. |
**Adam Stacoviak:** Have you got piles of laundry that you're washing? What is your stress level in this moment? |
**Jim Remsik:** Stress level is pretty low. It's gonna unfold, and it will be the thing that it is... |
**Jerod Santo:** That's one way to look at it. |
**Jim Remsik:** You could always sell more tickets, you could always have more sponsors... And it's not like we're not still working on it, but... I've got backdrops, and a projector... I did a test run at my mom's 55+ community on Sunday night, just to bring everything out, put it all together, make sure that I've got... |
**Jerod Santo:** What was your talk about? |
**Jim Remsik:** No, no, no, I didn't actually do a talk. I just got everything put together. But they have a community space that is large enough to put it all together. Because it turns out, it's like 30 feet of backdrops. |
**Adam Stacoviak:** Oh, my gosh. |
**Jerod Santo:** That's a big one. |
**Adam Stacoviak:** Yeah, don't dry run that day one, right? Test-run that at a 55+ community where it's safe. |
**Jim Remsik:** This was not my first test run either, because I did -- I think two weeks before I did one, and it did not go well. I'm like "I'm so glad that I don't have 100 people sitting behind me saying "Where's the show?" |
**Jerod Santo:** Yeah... |
**Jim Remsik:** You know, the one thing that does have me sweating a little bit is that I ordered the projection screen online, and it was supposed to be here on Saturday, the 23rd. And then they said, "No, it's delayed. It'll be there on August the 26th." Well, it's now August the 27th and I don't have a screen to pro... |
**Jerod Santo:** Less than a week? Or do you have more than a week? |
**Jim Remsik:** More than one week. |
**Jerod Santo:** Yeah, more than one week. You've got a week and a half... Chicago, September 6th. |
**Adam Stacoviak:** Well, I mean, if it doesn't arrive, dropship it to wherever you're going to be at. Don't be like "It's only at home I can take deliveries." Take delivery wherever you're at. |
**Jerod Santo:** Yeah, but you can't change that that late in the game. It's going to show up even later. |
**Adam Stacoviak:** Nah, you can'. the next venue, though. The next event gets the screen. |
**Jerod Santo:** You should order a backup and ship it straight to Atlanta right now. |
**Jim Remsik:** I have found there is a not nearly as good version, but there is a version that I can get, that should be able to get here in time. But I want the good version. I want the best experience for people. |
**Jerod Santo:** Sure. Well, if you are in and or around Chicago, Atlanta, NawLeans, as they call it down there, Portland, San Diego... And especially Austin, because I hear one Adam Stacoviak will be in attendance... |
**Adam Stacoviak:** I will be in attendance. I'll be there. |
**Jerod Santo:** ...it's not too late to get in on it, right? You're selling tickets right up to the day, I suppose, and... |
**Jim Remsik:** Absolutely. The other thing too is if you're in between those cities, I'd love to stop and have coffee, or whatever. |
**Jerod Santo:** Oh, cool. |
**Jim Remsik:** Part of making the movie or making the documentary is we want to find people along the way. I've got one stop already in Nashville, and then I'm talking to Travis Dockter, who's planning Blastoff Rails for next year in Santa Fe, New Mexico, about stopping there as well. |
**Jerod Santo:** Put your route up on the website. Put your route so that people can see where you'll be generally speaking. That'd be cool. |
**Jim Remsik:** I think, again, in that promo kit, which is in the footer of the xoruby.com, I think there is a link... But we'll make it more prominent and do a specific call on the blog. |
**Jerod Santo:** Yeah, that'd be cool. "Here's where we'll be, and when." |
**Adam Stacoviak:** \[01:01:47.12\] I would almost encourage -- I'm trying feverishly to see if you'll correct me, but... If there's already an Instagram. Because I was gonna say, just start a brand new Instagram just for this, or something like that. Anything to kind of like document as you go... Because that thing wi... |
**Jim Remsik:** Yeah, I was trying to avoid -- |
**Jerod Santo:** \[laughs\] \[unintelligible 01:02:07.01\] |
**Adam Stacoviak:** As I said it, I was like "Oh, that's kind of sad..." |
**Jerod Santo:** "Our version of Instagram is LinkedIn..." |
**Adam Stacoviak:** Well, I think less of our community is -- they're probably on Instagram, but not for that kind of content, maybe. I don't know. I was just thinking it might be better suited for LinkedIn... |
**Jerod Santo:** The problem with our community, with software developers, is that we're scattered to the four winds. That's the problem. |
**Adam Stacoviak:** We sure are. There is no home anymore. |
**Jim Remsik:** There is no home for anybody anymore. Like, there is not one place where you can go and find everybody... And that is absolutely a lesson that I knew going in, but I'm just feeling so hard. I don't necessarily know how to solve it. We are not creating our own asynchronous communication space. We're part... |
**Adam Stacoviak:** Or even temporary. Like, I've been to so many conferences over the years where you have a temporary place, and all the connection you're trying to make is stuck in that past. That's a great choice to use Ruby Central's Slack, and just double up... Because - like, put them where the community's at, a... |
**Jim Remsik:** Yeah. We did that with Madison Ruby, and we will be moving everybody over to that Ruby Central community Slack instead... Giving people the opportunity to move over there. We're not going to force people if they don't want to, but... |
**Adam Stacoviak:** How in the world do they afford that Slack? |
**Jim Remsik:** I think it's free. I think it's the free version. |
**Adam Stacoviak:** Oh man, I've got to know who they know. Well, not anymore, because we use Zulip, and it's so much better, by the way... |
**Jerod Santo:** I was gonna say, they probably just lose their history like we used to. |
**Adam Stacoviak:** Yeah, that's probably the case. Anyways, Zulip. Hey, Zulip is cool. We love Zulip. |
**Jerod Santo:** Zulip is cool. Another place you can go... \[laughter\] It's one more app. That's the challenge, is it's just \[unintelligible 01:04:08.23\] |
