Tako and CockroachDB share one idea: one binary per box, and let the boxes figure out the rest. Pair them → a distributed app and a distributed database on three VPSs you own. No control plane. No managed bill. tako.sh/blog/build-a-d…

Probably shipping durable channels in tako sooner than planned. Single server first. Multiple servers with redis coordination - next. Client baked into sdk. Creating reliable and durable channels (SSE/WS/stream) have never been easier. Hello AI chats 🫡

Originally designed with durable streams and multiple transports (ws/sse/http), but evolved into a clearer separation: Tako.channels and Tako.streams. Aiming for top-notch DX.

Tako is designed to be used with an SDK. The npm package (tako.sh) was the first one I published. Now it's time for Go: go get tako.sh

Aaand it's live tako.sh/blog/durable-c…

Applies to the app secrets too! This is why tako.sh never puts secrets in env and always encrypts them, even for development!

Not only certs, but also secrets management, zero downtime releases, realtime channels and more! tako.sh solves all of these.

I predict Cloudflare will ship email client and feature flags this or next week.

Low move by big tech to steal traffic from small indie hackers via Product Hunt 😸.

Sandboxes here, sandboxes there. Everyone is building sandboxes.

I built durable workflows for tako.sh with a pretty neat type-safe api. Details are here: tako.sh/blog/durable-w…

Workflows ship with your app. No external queue to provision, no extra auth tokens, no network hop to a SaaS. Your handlers live in workflows/*.ts, they get secrets on fd 3 like your HTTP code, they deploy with everything else, and they keep running across rolling updates 😍

isitagentready.com There's no API so it's deemed to stay at 69

This right direction 👍 I did similar approach for secrets in tako: Tako.secrets.DATABASE_URL Passed via fd3, fully typed. More details here: tako.sh/blog/secrets-w…

You know how kids get addicted to a song and then it’s on your repeat playlist? My youngest one has dancing parties in the kindergarten and her song of choice that plays in our car nonstop is Let It Go remix 😅 youtu.be/B_wmXUoPJ-s?si…

Better idea: don’t use unencrypted secrets.

A note to a future self: use rolling releases before the “v1”.

Every time a service gets pwned, tech Twitter treats it like open mic night. Go easy, folks. 😅

Needed a super tiny command to auto-generate error codes so I created github.com/lilienblum/err…: 𝚗𝚙𝚡 𝚎𝚛𝚛𝚔𝚒𝚝 𝚊𝚍𝚍 𝚄𝚂𝙴𝚁_𝙽𝙾𝚃_𝙰𝚄𝚃𝙷𝙾𝚁𝙸𝚉𝙴𝙳 --𝚍𝚎𝚜𝚌𝚛𝚒𝚙𝚝𝚒𝚘𝚗 "𝚄𝚜𝚎𝚛 𝚗𝚘𝚝 𝚊𝚞𝚝𝚑𝚘𝚛𝚒𝚣𝚎𝚍" Creates and manages errors.ts with enum that contains
