Finally tried #jujitsu after having had it installed for a few months. Wow it only took like an hour to get comfortable with it in a git colocated repo, why didn’t I do this sooner? It fits my typical git rebase workflow perfectly with way fewer steps

#AnimalDatabaseAlliance, assemble! We're excited to announce the TigerBeetle connector for @redpandadata Real-time transaction streaming, now correct and fast, by default.

Kubernetes v1.34: Use An Init Container To Define App Environment Variables-

Excited to finish watching this talk about empowering people to learn and use @rust-lang.org when I’m back from holiday. Having watched the intro, it looks like there are bunch of interesting new tools to make the language more approachable. youtu.be/R0dP-QR5wQo?...

My first time using Gemini chat today — turns out it’s the only one that supports OCRing large PDFs that have been scanned in. Claude only seems to work with PDFs containing actual text instead of just images of text. Lifesaver for asking questions on old legal documents such as title deeds!

Today, we're announcing our first hosted infrastructure product: pyx, a Python-native package registry. We think of pyx as an optimized backend for uv: it’s a package registry, but it also solves problems that go beyond the scope of a traditional "package registry".

New Redis release, but with a twist. It includes our first Rust patches to Redis Query Engine! In particular, it ships the new TrieMap implementation I wrote with Henk Oordt, as part of @mainmatter.com's ongoing collaboration with Redis.

Really enjoyed this talk by @hillelwayne.com. In particular, the section with tips on how to think about abstracting a system so it can be formally specified, even just debugged youtu.be/d9cM8f_qSLQ?...

"When not to use Tokio"--Loving this section in the docs of Tokio (tokio.rs/tokio/tutorial), a runtime for building async applications in Rust. There are no silver bullets, and it's vital to understand when a given library or tool adds value, and when it does not.

Interesting to see NYSE going with RedPanda for a Kafka-compatible streaming platform for real-time market data www.redpanda.com/case-study/n...

Disposable code is here to stay, but durable code is what runs the world, and it isn't going anywhere either. www.honeycomb.io/blog/disposa... (Engineers who are freaking out about their jobs going away can stop now. 💜)

Thoroughly enjoying the IronBeetle series on YouTube about how @tigerbeetle.com works. There are some very interesting ideas behind it and they are well explained

If you're using Claude Code, the latest GB release has a very cool hooks integration where it puts the output of each session you run into a new parallel Git branch. Check it out 👇 blog.gitbutler.com/parallel-cla...

Having used Duolingo for a long time to practise Spanish, I recently started listening to Language Transfer on SoundCloud and it is EXCELLENT www.languagetransfer.org

The uv build backend is now stable, and considered ready for production use. An alternative to setuptools, hatchling, etc. for pure Python projects, with a focus on good defaults, user-friendly error messages, and performance. When used with uv, it's 10-35x faster.

The @zed.dev agent mode is pretty cool! I’ve only used the Aider one before, but the Zed one is a lot slicker. Still requires care when using, but with a bit of practice I can see it being a real productivity boost.

You can now safely share @s2.dev streams directly with end clients like browsers, apps, or agents! No proxying required. Check it out, s2.dev/blog/access-...

I regret nothing yet! fly.io/blog/youre-a...

I’ve been trying out @gitbutler.com recently and it’s a HUGE productivity boost. Before it would take me multiple steps of rebasing and stashing things to get my changes how I want them, but now it’s a simple drag and drop.

🧵 The AT Protocol (atproto), which underlies Bluesky, lets us to interface with the same data in as many ways as we can conceive of through AppViews that each provide a different "view" of the network. Can we make our local-first software as interoperable as the AT Protocol? 👇

Just attended the #QuintLang virtual launch party where they announced their #RustRewrite! Excited to try and model the communication between our algo engine and an exchange to see if there are any unnoticed race conditions

Extremely cool implementation of an interpreter in Go. Instead of compiling to bytecode and then executing it in a separate VM, just "compile" directly to Go functions (capturing arguments with closures) and execute them directly. Very clean!

A few months ago I started looking at TLA+ as an extra tool to test the behaviour of complex code without having to manually think of every edge case. I had to pause as the syntax and tooling had a steep learning curve. I’ve discovered quint-lang.org this week and it seems a lot more approachable!

Hello world!
