Converting coffee into code. These days mostly working on making fast large-scale ETL systems faster.
Weekend project - making realistic blackholes in Godot. Think it turned out pretty good! Single shader and sphere.

Chancy 0.18 is live and now "semi-stable". A highly flexible postgres-based task queue for Python with workflows, global rate limiting, a built-in dashboard, and much more. Already using Postgres and thinking of adding Celery? Try Chancy instead.

We are looking into building a benchmark for URLPattern.

If you use URLPattern in the real world, what is your usage pattern?

@github.com's free copilot update today has broken copilot for @jetbrains.com users with open-source maintainer access. Disable the extension to stop it from popping up a warning once a minute. @ashley.dev do you know if this will get fixed today?

The final wiki.vg export is available from archive.org at archive.org/details/wiki.... This contains all pages, uploads and edit history. @minecraft.wiki has done an excellent job of importing most of the content into minecraft.wiki.

@sentry.io This month is my 10 year anniversary of getting a free open-source sentry account, which is still going to this day and has worked flawlessly in all that time. This investment in open-source lead me to introduce or expand Sentry usage at 4 small companies at over $8k/USD a month.

Having done some work on ActivityPub with Takahe (github.com/jointakahe/t...), I can appreciate Bluesky's relatively seamless federated setup. Much more suitable for the average end user. The suggested lists during setup are also a great way to get new users engaged from the get-go. Nicely done!
