Those benchmarks from @t3.gg revealed some interesting issues in Workers. Happy to say it's all fixed now, save for some lingering next.js-specific stuff we're continuing to work on. Thanks for the reproducible test cases, @t3.gg. Excessive details in blog post: blog.cloudflare.com/unpacking-cl...

i just asked claude to build an equalizer in c++ for my Tangara and it two shot it (hit a bootloop that took some debugging) my queer ipod now has MEGABASS 😌

3. your career is a pie-eating contest where the prize for winning is more pie the things people see you do are the things they'll ask you to do. if you want to get asked to do certain types of work, make sure people see you doing that type of work

So this screen in @onlineornot.com has always been slower than I wanted - around 2.3s(!) to load 10 rows of data from the GraphQL endpoint. It was the first screen I ever built (4+ yrs ago), and I leaned heavily into GraphQL resolvers because I assumed it'd be fast.

realised i was missing a pretty important empty state in @onlineornot.com today: when you search for something and there are no results

fyi founder friends — new scam to watch out for

Goodbye TopBarNav, hello SidebarNav

Probably my favorite YouTube video of all time. 90 seconds of inspiration to last a lifetime youtu.be/E1oZhEIrer4?...

every week when you've convinced yourself you just need to build one more feature and it'll fix the plateau just one more feature bro it'll be so good bro

TIL there are SaaS vendors that raise their prices automatically year over year for existing customers surely that increases churn?!

Quite an excellent piece. Max and I don't agree on everything (some of our lessons learned contradict each other), but I love having my thinking challenged, and I'm probably wrong on some of these!

Always fun to get emails like these from @onlineornot.com customers

learning French be like

I wrote an article about the lessons learned from running OnlineOrNot for the past four years: maxrozen.com/on-four-year...

I wish all websites were as easy to monitor as StackOverflow

just one more ui fixup bro trust me bro it'll be so good when its done bro

crazy how effective positioning is "uptime monitoring for your software team" - weak, tired - been there, done that "get alerts when your team vibe-codes your product offline" - wired, locked-in - been looking for this for weeks, sign me up fam

the children yearn for client-side rendered web apps

Reading this book on strategies for ADHD brain and realising that I already do like half of them what a strange coincidence

good to be back

fresh off a 28hr flight and have a whole day of work ahead of you? try "two double espressos before 9am"! you will certainly not regret having "two double espressos before 9am"!

"Bury them in examples" is the developer version of "kill them with kindness"

think about your audience of course, but the *vast* majority of readers online aren't impressed by your use of words like utilize, leverage, operationalize, etc. if anything, you're confusing them. just say use.

Twitter's down: twitter.onlineornot.com

haha linkedin is crazy

If you or a loved one was exposed to useEffect through LLM-generated code you may be entitled to financial compensation.

for new #rss people coming in: you can follow any #bluesky profile in your feed reader, just tack on "/rss" to the end of the profile url e.g. bsky.app/profile/john...

thoughts on the new M4 air as a small business: as an engineer: obviously I'm getting it, hardware is cheap as the one paying the bill: I have to depreciate that mf over 3 years?! 😤

Here's 95% of my job as a principal software engineer

You would be surprised how many folks try to monitor 192.168.1.1 in @onlineornot.com

my job for the past few days has been "beach"

absolute ripper of a day for it

Australians saw this and decided to use Microsoft Teams

me, naively: i'll just monitor every bsky node, can't be that many bsky:

Hello I'm hiring software engineer(s) in Sydney. (Hi I'm hiring software engineer(s) in Sydney, I'm dad.) But I actually am though, even though Bluesky has limited reach, feel free to say hi. More deets on LinkedIn if you like.

Moving a server-based AWS Lambda website to Cloudflare Workers (static assets) be like (1.1k ms avg latency to ~20ms avg latency)

i shit you not, linkedin has better reach than regular social media atm

So I monitor every bsky node just out of curiosity, it's got decent uptime! bsky.onlineornot.com

buying books that your friends recommend is cool and all, but I'm in my rereading the same book over and over just before bed era atm its Sapiens

the "hey can you unblock this vendor so i can pay them" to "no? brb getting a new bank in 5 minutes" pipeline is real

cat

same applies to writing!

tired: script kiddies wired: chat kiddies copy and pasting code you don't understand is not new, and not a recipe for longterm success

Got a tangara on the way, the hype is real (cooltech.zone/tangara/)

regular Wednesday in France

picked up a refurbed iPhone to build an iOS app, haven't used one in years initial thoughts: damn, y'all still live like this?

There are 200 “to-do” apps because there’s 2,000 ways to do it, and which way is “best” is personal. From features to integrations to workflow to opinionation to brand voice. What other areas are like that? P.S. Those are often good places to start new companies.
