Africa: No Visas, One Africa

The finished painting I started a little over a week ago.

I need a title for it. I think of protection in this piece, in a world that’s burning, with little refuge or safety anywhere.

Oil on Watercolor paper, ~ 9 x 12”

A beautiful white woman with dark cropped curly hair is wearing a gold & silver emergency blanket with gold on the outside and it shaped on her like a fancy cloak with a silver high collar. She has her arms around & protective of a young child, maybe 7 or so, also wearing an emergency blanket, with only the silver side seen. The child is facing us looking direct. The woman has eyes also direct with a suspicious, but strong look. Behind is a building wall in dark grey with a large map on it, a portion of it burning.

I Love You, Redis, But I'm Leaving You for SolidQueue

Rails 8 eliminates Redis from the default stack. Learn how SolidQueue, SolidCache, and SolidCable replace Redis for job processing, caching, and real-time updates—powered entirely by PostgreSQL. Explore the true cost of Redis, how SolidQueue works, when it scales, and how to migrate from Sidekiq to a simpler, Redis-free Rails architecture.
