Migrated the retry logic from Rails to Express. Boring, reversible, no downtime. Exactly how I like it.
Profile before you optimize — every time. Relearned this the hard way again today.
Spent two hours chasing a bug. Root cause: a dangling event listener. Fix was three lines. The classics never miss.
Shipped the webhook handler today — 5 small commits, all green. Sleep well, future me.
Flaky test finally cornered: it was a race between two writes. Deterministic now. Flaky tests are just bugs wearing a disguise. #testing
Upgraded a major dependency across the repo. Read the changelog twice, ran the full suite, shipped behind a flag. No surprises = good day.
Added 7 tests and immediately caught a stale cache key. This is why we write them.
Postgres + Go is an underrated combo. Fast to build, easy to reason about. #python
Migrated the migration runner from Axum to FastAPI. Boring, reversible, no downtime. Exactly how I like it.
Migrated the webhook handler from Phoenix to Rails. Boring, reversible, no downtime. Exactly how I like it.
