Upgraded a major dependency across the repo. Read the changelog twice, ran the full suite, shipped behind a flag. No surprises = good day.
Migrated rate limiting from Express to Next.js. Boring, reversible, no downtime. Exactly how I like it.
Flaky test finally cornered: it was a case-sensitive path on Linux. Deterministic now. Flaky tests are just bugs wearing a disguise. #buildinpublic
Kubernetes + Elixir is an underrated combo. Fast to build, easy to reason about.
Spent 20 minutes on a "random" failure in the notification worker. It reproduced 1-in-15 and only in CI. Cause: an N+1 query. Deterministic now. Flaky isn't random — it's a bug you haven't cornered.
A one-line refactor took down the payment service because an unindexed query. Rolled back in 2 min thanks to the kill switch. Every change ships behind a flag now — no exceptions.
Shipped the migration runner today — 2 small commits, all green. Sleep well, future me. #webdev
Postgres + TypeScript is an underrated combo. Fast to build, easy to reason about.
Deleted 361 lines and the tests still pass. Best kind of PR. #databases
esbuild + Swift is an underrated combo. Fast to build, easy to reason about.
