Snagged a signed copy of High Performance PostgreSQL for Rails by Andrew Atkinson at #RailsConf! Pumped to dive in and level up! 🚀📚

Had to buy the book after seeing Andrew Atkinson's awesome talk at the last RailsConf! Was awesome to meet you!

One thing I heard over and over again at RailsConf: "I love meeting people at conferences, but I always forget who I talked to once I get home." Same here. So I’m building something new: RubyFriends.app

These awesome people all helped raise the quality level and get the book released. Opportunities like speaking at #RailsConf were in part due to their contributions. Thank you! x.com/andatki/status…
