You'll find me purveying fine devops and quaffing #elixirlang. I've been known to #kubernetes every now and then.

Also a world renowned taco connoisseur.

With Ecto and complex transactions I prefer a Repo.transaction w/ a handful of `with` expression to Multi.

But I was also dropped down a staircase on my head as a child. YMMV.

2. It's also a tracks preloads ...

We have an opts field on all get/list domain functions that let you request add'l info similar to JSONAPI, but at the elixir func level.

1. Inside the deploy/1 function, if the relations aren't loaded, it will load them and emit a telemetry event so you can find call sites missing data.

TFW it works.

Last night was the end of a two-month hack-a-thon for me and my cofounder. We've been asked time and time again to support running massdriver in self-hosted environments on-prem and in the cloud.

We didn't build massdriver for this originally.

Working on this between self-hosted refactors: a tool that runs plan across all infra instances and flags changes from new policies. Like terraform plan but org-wide — real workloads, real environments. Context-aware, no more blind merges or finger-crossing.

Noodling on a new @massdriver.cloud feature that lets you search your #OpenTofu, #Terraform, #Helm, or any IaC tools’ current configurations, state, historic configs, related environments, and projects.

This suuuuucks.

We’re preparing for our self-hosted offering this Q and are replacing many of our AWS services. We were gonna swap out dynamo for this, but not now.

I put stuff at the end of our driveway with bizarre signs and you wouldn’t believe what people will take.

This was my magnum opus.

This is an extremely accurate git commit message despite looking lazy.

It appears the Cursor app either doesnt like having its code critiqued or it has a great sense of humor.
