I gave a talk at Anyscale about a topic near and dear to my heart: software testing, and how a good test suite is a developer's best friend. Thanks @oldcap for hosting me! slideshare.net/AndrewWang41/s…

Kudos to Cronitor for a simple product that just works. I needed failure notifications for some cronjobs running on my rPi, and with Cronitor, I was up and running in 15 minutes. Love it!

Excited and honored to be speaking at Have You Tried Rubbing a Database on It? I'll talk about why Airtable is easy to learn and hard to outgrow. Tickets here: hytradboi.com Have you tried rubbing a database on it?

Has anyone measured the availability of us-east-1 vs. other AWS regions? I have a hypothesis that it's significant (like 99.9% vs. 99.99% uptime), making *not* being based in us-east-1 a competitive advantage for startups.

Very cool that our 1M LOC TS migration at Airtable inspired an even larger 3.5M LOC TS migration at Stripe! Congrats to the team at Stripe for pulling this off.
