Just received a new edition of @martin.kleppmann.com’s great book. Spotted new chapters added, so looking like partially new book. Will keep you updated

Thanks! Working on batch insert: having arrays under the hood it can be pretty efficient.

@dgryski.bsky.social, you probably don't remember your tweet: x.com/dgryski/stat..., but I implemented it in Go: github.com/dronnix/bwarr

#rustlang hot take: We should rename .unwrap() to .or_panic(). (And .expect() to .or_panic_with().) "Unwrap" is a terrible name for the panicking function, especially since we also have things like .unwrap_or() and .unwrap_or_default() which never panic.

One day the industry will recognize the drawbacks of AI agents and nondeterministic automation, and rediscover the UNIX philosophy of chaining together small purpose built tools in a low cost and predictable way, otherwise known as shell scripts.

Any reasons why there are no bookmarks at @bsky.app?

In the era of wild connecting #AI to all "traditional" software systems via #MCP, we should design our systems as robust as ever. Limiters, circuit breakers, RBAC, graceful degradation, etc.

Hey, #MCP folks! The new version of the spec has just arrived. Significant changes for HTTP+SSE transport. spec.modelcontextprotocol.io/specificatio...

YES THANK YOU EU. The car I drive has a heads up display that projects text at distance from my eyes, & lots of steering wheel buttons, so I can drive it without wearing reading glasses. Touchscreens require me to PUT ON READING GLASSES TO DRIVE which is insane. I can’t drive touchscreen cars.

you fucked up a perfectly good computer is what you did. look at it. it's got innumeracy

“It’s a side project. I call it DeepSeek.”

Obvious observation: as a software engineer, I have to think about work-related things all day long. There is no room for my personal thoughts. So, I need additional time and space for it.

Here is why I consider AI agents nothing more than software. I'm talking specifically about the pieces of software that do things in a pipeline to complete a task. Let's take booking a flight to Vancouver as an example task.

I'm about to rebrand all my cron jobs to AI agents and raise a $100,000,000 seed round.

Wanting to see more #golang content here, let me try to get the ball rolling with a developers plus contributors starter pack! go.bsky.app/Hz6nVzr

You’re still arguing about tabs vs. spaces? May I present…

Nice blog post by @danp.net on the new #golang 1.24 testing/synctest package. Magically make your tests run faster and be less flaky! (Still experimental in 1.24, but hopefully with enough people trying it and giving feedback from real-world cases it could become non-experimental 😅).

It seems #AI overhype is going to the end www.ft.com/content/9350...
