Perl excelled in the gap between a shell script and c++, and still does.
Fun fact: OpenSSL contains a C compiler in 29 lines of perl code. (It can only compile a tiny subset of C, but still)
Preemptive optimization is everywhere.
The hidden cost of enterprise .NET architecture: Debugging hell. I've spent 13+ years in .NET codebases, and I keep seeing the same pattern: Teams build fortress-level abstractions for problems they don't have. IUserService calls IUserRepository. IUserRepository wraps…
There’s a less known edge case for fortinet devices where, rather than act merely as a remote code execution platform, they can serve as firewalls
A ~300 line script should be more maintainable than some third party software with a license fee or worse a saas with an annual subscription. Think hard why that may not be the case for your engineering org.
Half of tech twitter is just people explaining what Chatgpt explained to them 💀
I am sick of tech but more in love with engineering than ever. The industry as a whole is full of hype and grift but if you look hard enough you fill fine people building incredible things.
Yes
Repetitive, manual operational work ("toil") isn't just a chore, it's a bug that scales with your success. The SRE mindset is to treat operations as a software problem. Your goal isn't just to run the system, but to build automation that runs it for you.
Ensure you include "modern" in the description of your open source project. Totally meaningless but it pleases people.

It is nonsense to suggest you can’t write any app, of any complexity, in C. I do find a light level of C++ beneficial for many larger projects, but it can also go tragically wrong. Sometimes, specific language features can be transformative valuable, but not nearly as often as…
It's really wise (and not hard at all) to just build your container images from scratch. fastcode.io/2025/08/30/the…
Today I released DBD::libsql that is a driver for DBI, the database interface module for Perl. It makes able to access Turso databases from Perl. fyi: @tursodatabase
