Also: --auto-paginate, --body-file for large payloads, and binary size down to < 6 MB.
Who would've thought MAGA would bring back the crusades...
Fear is a terrible thing.
It is truly disheartening to see my RSS reader being slowly inundated with Claude’s voice…
I somehow believe we’ll see Epstein in the ET files
Curious as to how hard it fought back and stood its ground.
If a process depends on a specific person’s willpower, then it’s not a process.
I go into my view on the topic of release cadence and how to systemize it in my new post.

Book cover of "Designing Data-Intensive Applications, 2nd edition". It has a similar wild boar on the cover as the first edition, but it uses O'Reilly's new cover design, and the boar is now slightly colourised.
The second edition of Designing Data-Intensive Applications, by myself and @chris.blue, is finished and sent off to the printers! Ebooks should be available in the next week, and print books in 3–4 weeks. Sigh of relief. 😅
(BTW, this is a good opportunity to support your favourite local bookshop!)
Romanian dictatorships lost taste in the 50's. We need something fresh.
It's always been easier to blame other than to take responsibility.
That said, let's go greece! I want a souvlaki nazi in my fantasy league.

Romanian scepticism should be a thing
When I heard Mario Draghi say, “what began in fear must continue in hope,” I realized that we Europeans are in desperate need of a common purpose.
EU has always been a construction driven more by reason than by passion, born out of the need for peace and economic prosperity after two world wars.1/5
Since you're asking...
Thanks! Please let me know if you find it useful.
Aperture v0.1.7 adds automatic retry with exponential backoff. It respects Retry-After headers, uses jitter, only retries idempotent methods by default.
Also: config management commands, quiet mode for clean pipelines, and now on Homebrew.

TypeScript's type system is compile-time only. Exceptions ignore it. Nullable returns work if someone downstream remembers to check.
Wrote about making error handling explicit so the compiler catches it instead of production.
I feel like she’s judging me.
TypeScript's type system is compile-time only. Exceptions ignore it. Nullable returns technically participate, but only if someone downstream remembers to check (not at 4pm on a Thursday, after the third meeting).
There's a reason engineers keep rediscovering Result types.
Enemy of my enemy...
Think → Act → Observe → Repeat.
TypeScript error handling approaches in the wild:
- exceptions (sometimes caught)
- nullable returns (sometimes checked)
- result types
- hoping for the best
Don't mess with the bears!
This guy is a walking joke.
European diplomacy at its finest. Seems like the leaders still thinks Trump can be appeased.
Solid reasoning.
A headline soon: Trump willed the world into existence.
