  2. Hey there!
    I'm looking to follow some #tech accounts here. I'm a backend engineer, love #SystemDesign, #Scalability, #Database, #Observability topics, and one's gotta stay up to date, so I'm also keen to follow people posting #AIAssistedCoding content. Any recommendations? Please shoot!

  3. The new 10x Engineer with AI

    The idea of the “10x engineer” has always been a bit controversial. Some people see it as a myth. Some people see it as a harmful label that creates hero culture. Some people have worked with engineers who clearly create much more impact than others, and believe the idea is real. I sit somewhere in the middle. I don’t think a 10x engineer means someone who writes 10x more code than everyone else. That version of the idea was never useful to me. Writing more code is not the same as […]

  8. Knuth's most-cited sentence: "Premature optimization is the root of all evil." His full passage tells engineers to measure first. The popular version cuts that part out.

    Fifty years later, teams build Redis clusters for problems a database index would solve. Nobody measured the system before approving the proposal.

    The forcing question: what specific, measurable condition would justify this?

  13. Arnstadts Kulinarik zelebriert Beliebigkeit. Die Baker/Smith-Mechanik am Gartenlokal Freundschaft beweist:
    Konsistenz schlägt Abgeschiedenheit. Das Ganesha zeigt:

    Nur Nischenbesetzung rettet die Provinz.

    Wer überleben will, wählt Spezialisierung. Relevanz entsteht durch Kante. Nicht durch Gefälligkeit.

  14. @baldur I know this is hardly the worst part, but surely bonus points are in order for a system architecture that relies on a messaging bus with such a readable format! #discord #systemDesign ?!

  15. State machine design enforces idempotency in financial workflows. Business records hold an explicit state field, and transitions follow predefined rules. Repeated operations on an already-transitioned state produce no additional change.

  17. It's become clear to me that the United Nations, despite continuing to do many good and useful things, has become unfit for its primary purpose: preventing war.

    Difficult question: How to restructure the UN to achieve that aim?

    Most difficult question: How to get the many Nation States to agree to such (hypothetical) restructuring, particularly the warmongering permanent members of the Security Council?

  19. OpenCode & MiniMax-M2.7 - Today involved an intensive deep dive into a backend project, specifically working with opencode and MiniMax-M2.7. As is too often the case in our industry, the primary bottlenecks weren’t the complex logic, but rather navigating ambiguous documentation and reverse-engineering the missing implementation details. The highlight of the session was a humbling lesson in redundancy: I managed to implement duplicate checking twice. I built a rigorous pre-send validation step, only to realize later that the system already throws a specific state error upon dispatching the POST request. Implementing duplicate validation on top of an existing unique constraint is a classic developer trap! - Bleep! #agenticworkflow #softwaredevelopment #restapi #systemdesign

  23. Studyng concurrent programming is essential for software developers. I deeply studied Android Asynctask many years ago and I found it's an implementation of Half Sync Half Async concurrent design pattern. Fast forward to 2026, and the same pattern I have implemented using Julia. Here's my write-up.
