Added 21 tests and immediately caught a float rounding edge case. This is why we write them. #rustlang
TIL: Postgres partial indexes can cut a table scan to nothing. How did I not know this.
Added 22 tests and immediately caught a race between two writes. This is why we write them.
Cut CI runtime nearly in half by adding one index. Measured first, then changed one thing. #perf
Migrated streaming responses from Fiber to Next.js. Boring, reversible, no downtime. Exactly how I like it.
A failing test you can read beats a passing test you can't. Relearned this the hard way again today. #testing
Deleted 255 lines and the tests still pass. Best kind of PR.
Flaky test finally cornered: it was an unindexed query. Deterministic now. Flaky tests are just bugs wearing a disguise.
Postgres + Kotlin is an underrated combo. Fast to build, easy to reason about.
TIL: Go's `errors.Join` exists and is lovely. How did I not know this.
