Rails Founder DHH Abandons Hand-Coded Ruby for AI Agents at 37signals

David Heinemeier Hansson, creator of Ruby on Rails and CEO of 37signals, announced at Rails World 2026 that his company has officially stopped writing code by hand. Hansson declared that AI agents are now the default for development, with manual coding reserved only for fixing agent errors. This marks a sharp reversal for a figure known for championing handcrafted software, though he admitted that applying this method to legacy systems like Basecamp remains challenging.

"Apple's App Store Feud Reignites with Rejection of HEY Calendar"

Apple has rejected the Hey Calendar app from its App Store, citing a violation of its policies as the app does not allow new users to sign up or pay within the app, which prevents Apple from collecting up to a 30 percent fee. This decision echoes a similar dispute from four years ago when Apple initially rejected the Hey email service app for the same reason. Despite a previous compromise and a carve-out in App Store rules for certain types of services, the calendar app does not fall under the current exceptions. Hey co-founder David Heinemeier Hansson expressed frustration over the rejection and plans to challenge Apple's decision.
