2 dead Raspberry PI’s and my website is finally back online. Why do I have 2 dead PI’s? Because the power supply that comes with the #ZimaBlade doesn’t conform to the USB-C standard. Instead of negotiating power like the standard specifies it pushes 12v. The first PI I

I’ve reached the point in my career where I’m starting to just know the people working on OSS projects. Seems like we all just kinda move around 😅

Blame culture is bad. When it comes to incidents there are normally so many contributing factors. - Reviews that didn't catch the issue - Documentation that was inaccurate or missing - Inadequate testing You can't possibly boil incidents down to a single contributing user or

It would be nice if we could go more than a few months between open source projects getting mad about people monetizing their code... Gets tiring after a while you know?

Idk if I should be happy or concerned. I've written a performance blog for a OSS project and it's been held up because the results are inconsistent what the maintainers would expect. Maybe its a good thing? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ we'll see when it launches 😆

Took a bit but my blog on Valkey is finally live! I pushed it to the limits on a Raspberry Pi. Why? Why not? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Lot of practical steps for how to squeeze the most out of Valkey in here. valkey.io/blog/testing-t…

Got Valkey running at over 1M RPS on a Raspberry Pi! What started as a side project turned into a deep dive on benchmarking & HPC optimizations. While you may not take a Pi to prod the lessons are generally applicable. valkey.io/blog/testing-t… #HPC #CM4 #Valkey #Linux

We should treat all our interfaces as recommender systems. Say you are prefetching issues for a view. You could just grab the 10 most recent issues. If they are all machine generated maybe they aren't the most relevant. What if you used a combination of recency, new comments,

For those using the Even Realities G1 glasses you can now 3d print a case for your sunglasses clip. Made this over the new years break because I was too nervous to put these into my backpack without a sturdy case 😅 printables.com/model/1131130-…

Super looking forward to getting to share about how @GitHub does ingestion! Hope to see you all there and let me know below, what do you want to know about ingestion? The slides aren't done yet 😝

It's always amazing to me how much work it takes to get "just search" working. This post/blog was a great reminder of that challenge. Specifically, as it relates to building search indexes with the consistency mechanisms provided by Postgres.
