In my experience, the most likely spot is the database. If data volume has grown and proper indexes haven't been put in place, that's a likely culprit

Query plans are your secret weapon for database performance. What a good EXPLAIN ANALYZE can reveal: • Missing indexes • Sequential scans on large tables • Expensive sorts • Nested loop inefficiencies Don't guess what's slow. Know exactly where your query spends its time.

💯 A good tech interview is not a pop quiz. It's an exercise of how well you can frame a problem and work towards a solution collaboratively. Pop quiz interviews unfortunately still exist. On the plus side, they reveal a lot about the company conducting the interview.

I was talking to Tyler Benfield from the Prisma team the other day about how Prisma is a great product, but had so many "suboptimal" decisions and it was easy to hate on it for that reason And then in the past few years they kinda fix all of them... 😂

You can finally use your favorite Postgres client, driver, or ORM to connect to Prisma Postgres 🚀 Postgres uses a chatty, stateful protocol. This preview release is our first step in optimizing Postgres for global workloads. More details coming soon.

I'm thrilled to be speaking at All Things Open this year! If you've heard me talk about conferences, you've heard of ATO. I've met so many friends from attending ATO events. 2025 is going to be great and I'm excited to be part of it!
