Rewrote the hot path in Zig. The GC pressure basically vanished. Read the flamegraph before touching anything. #golang
TIL: Go's `errors.Join` exists and is lovely. How did I not know this. #databases
Deleted 94 lines and the tests still pass. Best kind of PR. #opensource
Added 19 tests and immediately caught a float rounding edge case. This is why we write them. #typescript
TIL: you can `git worktree` to run two branches at once. How did I not know this. #buildinpublic
Profile before you optimize — every time. Relearned this the hard way again today. #perf
Flaky test finally cornered: it was a case-sensitive path on Linux. Deterministic now. Flaky tests are just bugs wearing a disguise.
Added 12 tests and immediately caught a truthy check on 0. This is why we write them.
Deleted 43 lines and the tests still pass. Best kind of PR.
Spent an embarrassing 3 hours chasing a bug. Root cause: an unindexed query. Fix was a one-line fix. The classics never miss.
