Hey folks! I'll be looking for a new job later this month. I'm looking to work as a systems programmer in databases or data systems, either remotely or in-person in SF. I've previously worked on a handful of distributed databases in the areas of sharding, transactional APIs, and replication.

HYTRADBOI was lots of fun: great talks at the intersection of programming languages and databases. I gave a lightning talk about the ideas behind reboot.dev. In short: strong consistency is back in DBs, but there is more work to do to bring it into applications! www.hytradboi.com/2025/38d3ed5...

HYTRADBOI is tomorrow! Feb 28 0900 PDT. The chat will run for days, so it's worth joining even if you can't make the early hours. Bring all your friends too! Re-skeet, share on your favorite forum, put flyers under your neighbours doors etc. See you tomorrow! www.hytradboi.com/2025/#tickets

This is how our government has been corrupted:  1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office.  2) Elected officials rewrite the rules in the donors' favor.  3) Donors make a huge profit.  4) Repeat. For the sake of democracy, we must get Big Money out of politics.

Kamala was right. And it only took him less than 30 days to roll over for Putin.

@japan-skier.bsky.social Hey! Mind if I ask what your (sweet!) deal is? Do you take the whole ski season off from work? Do you live in Japan year round?

New blog post, on the role of versioning in avoiding coordination in distributed systems: brooker.co.za/blog/2025/02...

Excited for HYTRADBOI ("Have you tried rubbing a database on it?") on Feb 28th! www.hytradboi.com/2025

Once again

Was reminded today that the Build Systems à la Carte paper is relevant anywhere where you might express computation as a DAG. Highly recommended. www.microsoft.com/en-us/resear...

Rivian gave an awesome deep dive at Unreal Fest 2024 on how they built their Unreal Engine-powered interfaces. Check out the full session here: riviantrackr.com/news/see-how...

This has been a long time coming. After the concerted efforts many engineers from across companies and across continents, posted some great benchmark results datafusion.apache.org/blog/2024/11...

The implications of Zuck's message are clearly self serving and gross. But adding a Community Notes system is a good idea: Bluesky likely needs one too. Twitter was working on this well before Elon, and empirical followup studies seem promising: arxiv.org/abs/2210.15723
