I wrote a post-mortem. Significantly less mortem compared to 2022 though. www.scattered-thoughts.net/writing/hytr...

All the videos are up at www.hytradboi.com/2025#program now.

"The website comes back ... 👀" Here's an awesome talk by Iain Ireland to get you started! www.hytradboi.com/2025/0a4d08f...

Eating chocolate, drinking barley wine and watching #hytradboi: Perfect Friday night 🥰

This is running now! I have a talk on how debuggers work in 30 mins

We're starting in 30 minutes. I hope you all remembered to bring your databases.

Get a ticket to watch @hytradboi.bsky.social tomorrow and discuss some wacky stuff in Convex! Or wait, the conference videos go up later—but this is a remote conference that's fun to participate in live, there are some real neat folks in the discussions.

HYTRADBOI is tomorrow! Feb 28 0900 PDT. The chat will run for days, so it's worth joining even if you can't make the early hours. Bring all your friends too! Re-skeet, share on your favorite forum, put flyers under your neighbours doors etc. See you tomorrow! www.hytradboi.com/2025/#tickets

I have a talk about S2 at HYTRADBOI this friday! www.hytradboi.com/2025/

Other kinds of talks. www.scattered-thoughts.net/writing/othe... Someone start CheckIfItActuallyWorksCon. I'll help.

It's starting to look a lot like ~Christmas~ HYTRADBOI! Just one week to go.

HYTRADBOI ("Have you tried rubbing a database on it?", @hytradboi.bsky.social) is happening again! It's a really cool, forward-looking online event on everything databases. Highly recommend to check it out and attend. Happening on Feb 28, 9:00-15:00 PDT. www.hytradboi.com/2025

Just a couple of days left to submit your lightning talks! www.hytradboi.com/2025#lightni...

I put together a talk for HYTRADBOI 2025 about my favorite technique for building databases or almost anything with high complexity - extreme rewriting!

HYTRADBOI was the best bang-for-my-buck (both in time and money) event that I attended last year. This year looks equally great! If you are interested in PL or DB, it's worth it; if you like both it's a must see! Sidenote: I think it's a great example of how to run an efficient remote conference!

This online conference on databases looks terrific

Looking forward to this interesting lineup. Beware the "wild ideas" session. Feb 28.

We still have room for more lightning talks, so I'm going to extend the deadline to Feb 16. Check out www.hytradboi.com/2025#lightni... for details.

Looking forward to HYTRADBOI in February — "a fun online conference about databases, programming languages, and everything in between." The last one (in 2022) was 🔥, and if these talks are any indication, this year's will be too. www.hytradboi.com/2025

The first few HYTRADBOI 2025 talks are ready! I'm so excited to be finally able to tell people about them! Talk #1: A YJIT interview with Maxime Chevalier-Boisvert

Here's a teaser for the low-latency compiler track at HYTRADBOI 2025. www.scattered-thoughts.net/writing/the-...

Don't forget to submit your lightning talks for HYTRADBOI 2025 before Jan 28! www.hytradboi.com/2025#lightni...

the hermetic, self-hosted, self-sustainable, recursively exportable, offline-first, file-first, web-based reactive open-source programming substrate built on observable runtime is online finally! tomlarkworthy.github.io/lopecode/web... I am hoping I can explain parts at @hytradboi.bsky.social 🤞

0/34 Did you know that if you rewatch one talk from HYTRADBOI 2022 every day, you'll be 10% more database by the end of the holidays? And just in time for HYTRADBOI 2025!

One of the invited speakers commented '...it sounds like it could be great or a disaster'. That is definitely the HYTRADBOI vibe.
