Been using DeepWiki to help me understand and navigate open-source projects codebases and I can say it does a pretty good job, even with my own repo πŸ˜… deepwiki.com/luislavena/d...

The Inertia.js + #CrystalLanguage work is coming along! Check out my latest video showing the prototype in action. Started with a simple 'Fruit Jokes' app rather than PingCRM. Still very experimental but promising! www.youtube.com/watch?v=kSq3...

Continuing my work on a Inertia.js adapter for #CrystalLanguage and wondering what should I do for example application? I think porting PingCRM to Crystal is too muchπŸ˜…

Don't count your quiet engineers out. I have a quiet engineer that always does a great job getting their work done, but through talking to people in & outside of my team, I've learned they do waaaay more work than I ever realized. Quiet storm πŸ’œ Quiet people, don't be afraid to talk about your work!

Currently working on a Inertia.js server-side implementation for #CrystalLanguage with no framework dependencies. Lot of rough edges and features to implement, but looks promising! 😊

Following @aaronfrancis.com try hard approach, decided to simplify my #CrystalLanguage and @vite.dev integration: no CORS fights, no crossdomain, no endless config, and just a single port exposed: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ek6V...

Is there something like litestream.io but for PostgreSQL? I know about WAL-G, but unsure if someone is working on improved UX for the entire process. πŸ€”

Ohai! long time since I ran this command from zero, with fresh eyes. I still remember installing v1.1 back in 2006 and build great stuff with it and all the versions that followed. Lot of things changed, but the essence remains the same. Let's see how far I get this time without breaking things πŸ˜…

Vernier 1.5.0 is out! This has some significant changes including rewriting the timer thread sleeping (should be lighter weight), recording Fiber activity (thanks @tenderlove.dev), and showing file listings on the command line.

Rubyists! sqlite3 gem v2.4.1 is out! Updates vendored sqlite to v3.47.2 which is an important bug fix release for intel architectures. github.com/sparklemotio... #ruby #sqlite

So seems that lobste.rs decided to block users of Brave at nginx level, and now that I've read all what is being it, time to switch browsers! 😬 github.com/lobsters/lob...

You built a product and now want to build a company around it. You care about security, want to remain lean and avoid overpriced SaaS offering you "security". Where do you start? You only have your domain name and perhaps an email service like FastMail or Proton. What do you do next? 1/
