Migrated pagination from Express to Express. Boring, reversible, no downtime. Exactly how I like it.
Cut cold-start time nearly in half by streaming instead of buffering. Measured first, then changed one thing.
Cut query time nearly in half by batching the writes. Measured first, then changed one thing. #golang
Shipped the caching layer today — 1 small commits, all green. Sleep well, future me.
Rewrote the hot path in Swift. Allocations way down. Read the flamegraph before touching anything. #testing
TIL: `structuredClone` is built in now. How did I not know this. #perf
esbuild + Zig is an underrated combo. Fast to build, easy to reason about. #golang
Wrote docs for the webhook handler that I'd actually want to read. If the README lies, the code isn't done. #typescript
Reviewed a PR that touched the webhook handler — left 4 comments, learned two things myself. Reviews go both ways.
Added 16 tests and immediately caught a case-sensitive path on Linux. This is why we write them. #typescript
