A feather is still pretty close to a heart though.

A few late stragglers here and there, but we’ll catch those too.

holy fuck I hated it, there wasn’t a single good thing about it.

• make coffee
• reboot the light switches

I was juggling storage sizes today. 9 petabytes in bytes already hit MAX_SAFE_INTEGER. 9PB is a lot but also isn’t.

Gotta reeducate.

One day. In 3 months. Just because of tech problems. Not because of meetings or calls or metawork.

Actually I’m not even mad, that’s amazing.

I thought I can escape jetlag, but I just slept for 12 hours.

Who tf designs this crap. A train is not a plane, don’t treat it like one. Against user expectation.

Heat death of a codebase.

Modules to tame data dependencies. Layers to tame function dependencies. Interfaces to tame dependency boundaries.

Love to see more people adopt this way of sharing their thoughts outside social media platforms, just on their own websites. I really, really like following the people I care about. I just don’t want to open Twitter or Bluesky most of the time.

Slowcial media, baby!

The german in me thinks this is very inefficient.

I had to try one out. idk why but it always fascinates me that medicine actually works. i’m so fucking sleepy

I came to Railway because I want to give developers truly great experiences. And this is exactly the stuff.

A rush of adrenaline, relief, and positive feedback. No idea how I should be able to sleep now. It’s 2:15am.

Case 14 is about a guy cleaning up and curiosity got him.
Case 15 is about case 14’s father who wanted to prove his son lied.

He did not lie.

I started adding Buckets to Railway on Monday. Today, 5 days later, I can create a Bucket in a project, click deploy, copy the credentials from the frontend, and upload files to it.

That’s kinda crazy.

You’re only as confident in your changes as you are in the tool.

If it feels like magic and you don’t understand it, it makes you less confident, not more.

I’m excited af about this because I’ve always experienced Buckets as this boring table UI in some cloud console, and to create a Bucket you had to fill out a huge form. But look at this! Right-click, Bucket, boom, here you go, now build stuff with it!

¹ right now the Bucket is just an empty shell and you can’t yet do anything with it. But tomorrow is the day where I will turn it into something usable

To verify this works, here are two DALL-E images I recently generated.

But

Then I would’ve only learned a tiny fraction about the existing code, and I likely wouldn’t understand half of it. By doing everything by myself, I learned so many things about the codebase that will be massively helpful in the future.

Tomorrow: crossposting to other socials. I think. Or maybe images first.

It’s scrappy, there’s a bug in timezones with relative times, and I want to add a bunch of stuff. But I can use it.

I still don’t feel like I want to open Bluesky or Twitter. It pulls me in too much and messes with my inner peace. But I’ll definitely set up some cross-posting in the future, and I also want to pull in likes (and maybe comments? dunno yet) from socials.

Hello?

Is this thing on?
