I can't believe @sergialmar.com fell for it! This year I'm honored and humbled to be on the @wasm.io stage for a panel! Come and watch me blabber and stutter, while @ospencer.dev, @juntao.bsky.social and @d-philla.bsky.social actually say something smart about… 🥁 "Running AI in Wasm"

You like Sandboxes? For real tho, giving a talk on 'em tomorrow @wasm.io in beautiful Barcelona. Check it out if you're around: 2026.wasm.io/sessions/no-...

Been listening to this dude's talks for years, and when a new one drops, it's better than either christmas or a fresh netflix episode on a show you've been binging for years. A nerd's nerd's favorite infra guy barely covers it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=qhSL...

I'm very happy to see this. Even in an age where we rely on editors less and less, vim, _your vim_, anywhere, across envs is truly powerful was worried it may not continue w/full force with Bram's passing (rip), but it appears the community is v strong. www.vim.org/vim-9.2-rele...

if you or a loved one have been harmed working with oauth, you may be entitled to compensation

Ah man, the @fosdem.org FOMO is overwhelming rn. Hope everyone enjoys the weekend! please grab a tripel karmeliet in the hallway for me and catch up with some of the amazing engineers I know who are going, people like @felicitas.pojtinger.com, @evacchi.dev, and @deadprogram.com 🍻 🤓

Man, the divide that exists between the dev experiences of SV/venture-backed Cos and Cos from The Rest Of America™️ never ceases to amaze Fr, infra founders should be required to do a tour in a bread-and-butter US/Ca/EU Non-SV company to understand how the world actually works

Now, all we need is the right primitive so more devs can easily join the party. Currently working very hard on this problem at boxer.dev

One beautiful thing about WebAssembly is that we are still so very early. Yes. Early. An ISA that comprises a novel compute paradigm where advances in size, safety, speed, and universality are virtually unmatched by orders of magnitude in most cases? Yeah, very early.

Everyone's releasing cool AI stuff, but I'm wondering: where's the next k8s coming from? the next Docker? or even the next Linux kernel or FreeBSD? Innovation in systems work is so siloed, hidden, often so much less fanfare asking for a friend

Can confirm.

You could seamlessly deploy across heterogenous environments, with ease + simple orchestration, with artifacts smaller/faster/safer/more universal than ever. But you don't wanna do that, do ya champ, your helm charts are too perfect. You're terrified of how simple it could all be

something something claude code opus 4.5

*Update*: I've decided to take a sabbatical to recharge, explore, and push forward some ideas. Apart from taking some initial time to focus on health, and my family, I’ll be spending a lot more time on things I simply did not have the bandwidth for while working long days,

it is Friday in Chicago youtu.be/ONtXSlRjcMk?...

Schemin'

Chicago kicking things off right 🌨️❄️

once again, deep in the source code of the Language of the AI Revolution so much shade on .py these days, not enough recognition of its fun and humble beginnings

Come through — not only is @wasm.io one of the best Wasm conferences in the world, @squillace.bsky.social usually helps and goes out of his way to make it a really good time :)

Is there such a thing as "burnout" ? Or is it just white-collar privilege masquerading as a legitimate mental health/life issue. This is an honest question -- I go back and forth on this myself, so I'm curious what people think

It's painfully obvious that Wasm is the ideal sandbox for not just agents, but also (and especially) executable artifacts produced by agents. but damn, if it isn't a shame we haven't made it accessible enough that developers leverage it for such by default

happy to report im still dreaming about plan9 and fuschia, but less so about configmaps, so thats progress in my book

Hey y'all, I'm looking for my next role! - 💻 Staff/principal Software Engineer or DevRel - 🧰 Mostly focused on JavaScript tech stacks - 👨🏻‍💼 I'm also open to moving into management - 🎮 Bonus points if it's #GameDev or adjacent If you know of something, my DMs are open. ❤️

People aren’t ready for the next blog post from @loopholelabs.io If you thought the XDP post was interesting (linked below) this next one is going to blow your mind. Here’s a hint: What do chess engines and NAT’s have in common?

Nice that one can use network-bypass techniques without crazy vendor frameworks or kernel mods. Even cooler that one can recreate iptables functionality like this for faster inter-host networking

Great post by @alex.sorlie.io

An eBPF Loophole: Using XDP for Egress Traffic XDP is Linux's fastest packet processor but only handles incoming traffic. We found a loophole in how the kernel determines packet direction to make it work for outgoing traffic too! Blog post with details 👇 loopholelabs.io/blog/xdp-for...

Well that filled up quick. 1.7k members but 200 seats. If you have a large space in SF and are willing to sponsor an event, dm me. Please boost for reach. We need larger venues!

If you find yourself in SF next week, @almog.xyz is talking about SlateDB at the SF Systems Meetup on Wednesday!

new website, who dis loopholelabs.io/about

Texas folks! I'lll be in town for Devopsdays Dallas next week, and already have plans with a few people, but would love to know -- who else will be around? Drop me a line if you'll be there! Looking forward to it :)

had multiple dreams last night that spanned topics including ConfigMaps, fuschia, plan9, BGP and anycast, back to back to back. so, safe to say touching grass is very much on the agenda this weekend

Absolutely love how sales people call their areas "Territories"; pure Western Expansion/early 19th century American Frontier vibes "Beyond the mighty Mississippi? that's mine for pillaging" "Any Patagonia vest b2b saas man found along the Pacific is fair game for my outfit"

Working with Luiz was an absolute pleasure. Looking forward to following his next chapter!

Just used o3 to fix my clothing dryer. The future is now and it absolutely slaps

one thing i love about systems programming is that when you get low level enough, things are extremely simple, and from there, you can build things beyond anyone's imagination

unexpected response to the recording of my talk "Moving Beyond Containers" at @Wasm - 50k views in < 2 weeks - 100s of mailing list signups - dozens of ppl reaching out about collaboration seems kinda wild for a pre-alpha OSS project 😅

🧩 Moving Beyond Containers - Introducing Boxer by Daniel Phillips @ Wasm I/O 2025 ▶️ Video: youtu.be/rHOwhkHv21U 🔗 Slides: boxer-wasmio2025.spinup.site #wasmio25

Howdy @d-philla.bsky.social ! 👏 Such a great talk from wasm/io I just wathced over on YT; quick Q... I'm imagining sandboxing runtimes in here (go / jvm), what is the ceiling? At first, something alpine:latest - then full go server, then full nodejs serverless or web servers.

Just watched your talk. If Boxer is a kind of Docker, and Marcotte is the Linux, what would be the Kubernetes of this? youtu.be/rHOwhkHv21U

Join us for the next SF Systems Meetup, generously hosted by OpenAI! We have an exciting pair of talks on fuzz testing and WebAssembly, you won't want to miss them: lu.ma/ltsl9g50

might be biased, but i think the work we are doing at @loopholelabs.io with eBPF is among the most interesting use-cases in the entire space www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y_C4...

it’s a tough call, but i think @wasmio might be among my favorite conferences: such an amazing and engaging community, in a great city. had so much fun talking about boxer this afternoon! looking forward to the rest of the week

Day two @fosdem.bsky.social!

. @d-philla.bsky.social kicking off the wasm devroom with boxer.dev

About to give the most annoying/fun talk tomorrow to the people who originally made containers, at @fosdem.bsky.social ! cc: boxer.dev

people out here today with new machines doing 67 trillion flops, and im just tryna spend a saturday afternoon making some old C code feel more like rust, really feeling the juxtaposition

Really looking forward to speaking at BugBash this year - the talk will be about a new way to do fuzzing & testing in a cost- and developer-time effective way through a new type of compute unit. See you there! https://bugbash.antithesis.com/#speakers

systemd is all you need
