Building Your Own R2 Unit in Ruby
summary
Claims that chat is the next UI and shows exactly how to build a Slack bot in Ruby: create a Slack app, store the bot access token and team/user IDs, run a websocket/EventMachine loop with slack-ruby-client and start_async, handle install with omniauth-slack (or similar), extract behaviors into modules, use NLP services like api.ai or wit.ai to return intents/entities+confidence, log failures and retrain, and shiped example Tatsu runs standups over Slack so the approach actually works; note most users only use about three apps.
