here's a fun open source story! i wrote a ruby profiler called rbspy 3 years ago. when I started the project, segiddins filed an issue asking for C functions to be profiled correctly (github.com/rbspy/rbspy/is…). I spent some trying to fix it but never figured out how to do it (1/2)
and then just last week, acj wrote a beautiful pull request that fixes the issue github.com/rbspy/rbspy/pu…! It uses a method of resolving the C function names that I didn't know was possible! It was so fun to get to see how it works and we merged it yesterday. (2/2)
maintaining an open source project is boring sometimes (like when you're redoing your CI again!) but I really love learning from other people's contributions to the project
and here's @acjensen's short thread about his work on the problem!
