Since using `def` to create a method returns a symbol with the method name, you can do something like this too:

  memoize def expensive_calculation(arg)
    @calculation_count += 1
    arg * 2
  end, ttl: 10, max_size: 2

  memoize def nil_returning_method
    @calculation_count += 1
    nil
  end

This is why I love working with Ruby!

I find that a lot of their "fully remote" positions are only remote if you live in the US.

I think you can get around that by choosing locations outside the US

Hello, I'm Mads. I have more than a decade experience with Ruby on Rails doing both frontend and backend.

I was always told that the best position is always the next position.

It's like the Monty Hall problem, switching is always the better solution.

I hold a PhD in computer science. I have more than 10 years of experience with Ruby and Ruby on Rails. I've helped build and scale frontends, backends, and APIs in general. I'm ready for whatever you throw at me - and can easily learn new technologies and languages, if needed.

I did the same for both of our kids. For the first, I created a web app where you could +1 or -1 on all legal names. I even used the Web Speech API to read aloud the names, if you clicked them.

For the second kid, I created an iOS app using React Native (https://i.imgur.com/aaTqXAY_d.webp?maxwidth=760&fidelity=gra...) where you could swipe names Tinder-style.

We didn't use the apps to find _the_ names, but to get a narrowed down list we could pick from. The projects were fun and educational.
