30 to 70 PRs a Day: How We Managed to Not Wreck Our Systems

The Honeycomb engineering team set out to double our productivity in a year. This is how we did it, what we did to keep things stable, what it cost us, and what we’re still figuring out.

If we are talking about future of #ai I'm in the same camp with Federico Faginn. He made great appearance in this show www.youtube.com/watch?v=0FUF... And that's why I think LeCun's AMI will outdo Anthropic and OpenAI but ultimately will not reach intelligence.

@antithesis.com , @martin.kleppmann.com thanks peeps! I'll surely do

In this day and age a genuine, meaningful human collaboration in tech in a privilege. I think companies who stick to that would do really well.

This is an outstanding paper: "no one seems able to think of turns of speech that are not hackneyed: prose consists less and less of words chosen for the sake of their meaning, and more and more of phrases tacked together like the sections of a prefabricated henhouse." bioinfo.uib.es/~joemiro/Rec...

I wanted to grab DeltaWalker for a few years, but never quite came to a point to part with $60 for it. But recently I saw it on bundlehunt.com and now I have best in class native macOS diff checker for less than $9.

💥 Elixir PSA: update Plug *immediately* to the latest possible (1.20.1) The latest CVE makes it trivially easy to DOS a plug based server. cna.erlef.org/cves/CVE-202... This one is a doozy stay safe out there and keep your deps updated! #elixir-lang

What I like about Ash is that it gently pushes towards vertical slices. What I don't like about it is that it then stands in the way :) www.planetgeek.ch/2024/09/19/o... I have a mixed split in my side-project: - auth and onboarding are features - hmrc and finexer are split by data ownership

Onion, Hexagonal, Clean or Fractal Architecture? All of them, and more!!

I'm using @ash-hq.org for the first time and I believe their tagline should be: *Ridiculously powerful* The amount of heavy-lifting they do is absolutely bonkers. All the stuff you don't *want* to care about in a web app is just being taken care of. *Massive* kudos to everyone involved!

It took me an evening to get initial understanding of how to use GenServer and about four days for it to really click. And year and a half till the first "ahha" with Leitmotif. For some reason GenServer also brought more satisfaction.

What I see during the hiring process is that EU/UK market doesn't financially reward professional growth after a certain point. IMO it's because most of the businesses still don't know how to make the best use of the digital phenomena. Software is a revolution that still didn't fully catch up.

You can't not love UK for this 🇬🇧❤️

Hey guys, We are hiring for mid/senior engineers to come work with us on a health tech product ats.rippling.com/dyad/jobs/93... It's a remote role within UK due to the data governance regulations. Please share for reach. #elixir

The biggest motivation for me to make my own business over all the years was my preferred working rhythm: I like to think walking in the park. I like to explore small avenues and corners of various solutions that come to my mind. And implement it only then.

I highly recommend this if you're like me - a backend developer looking to understands CSS better. Together with @joshwcomeau.com course it's really what moved the needle for me.

It's been two months since I launched The Layout Maestro interactive CSS course. For Eid, I'm running a $25 discount through Sunday, May 31. If you've been keeping the course on your radar, this is a good week to enroll in the course. thelayoutmaestro.com

That's so heartwarming, positive and reassuring. I hope UK can become a world leader in meaningfully transforming the tax system to build a healthier society. Go UK 🇬🇧

Stunned, appalled, shocked etc to see actual tax reform from a politician. This from Wes Streeting today. A thread on why capital gains tax is broken. It's too low AND too high. & why this is a good proposal.

The ongoing stream of software engineering pieces that mention that the future is in writing spec but never bother to define what a specification is or at what abstraction levels it should be is appalling; arguably, tickets are a spec, the code is a spec, and work between both is connecting dots.

Because consistency is boring, and HMRC Software Development Team is all about living large. One landmine at a time, one landmine at a time....

I can't express how much happy I'm that #AI takes care of boring, nitpicking stuff. The whole value creation pyramid has moved one level up. And there are technical models that will get an enormous benefit from that. Paper Design is one of them. The same design imported from Claude Design

After depleting Claude Design budget you can export design into Paper.Design and edit there. I don't know any other tool that would allow to embed Claud Design into a workflow with such efficiency.
