“Never write your own X library” This is such conventional wisdom. But somebody wrote their own. That’s why we have the choice not to write something. Following conventional wisdom you will never make an impact with your work. 🤷‍♂️

I remember when I was young - my first year at Red Hat, I sat down with one of our most senior engineers, avid to learn, and asked him if it was more important to read code, or write code, if I wanted to become a great programmer. This was especially important for Linux, which…

The experiment revealed something nobody expected. This isn't how software fails. Excel doesn't hallucinate. Databases don't claim to wear ties. We discovered AI can fail by creating alternate realities. And that's just one shop. One mini-fridge. Now scale that thought...

It’s fun to think of programming “costs” in terms of light distance traveled: int -> float conversion: Crosses your Laptop Screen Branch misprediction: Runs your room Thread context switch: 3 Football fields Cache invalidation: Travels to Another city

Why can AIs code for 1h but not 10h? A simple explanation: if there's a 10% chance of error per 10min step (say), the success rate is: 1h: 53% 4h: 8% 10h: 0.002% @tobyordoxford has tested this 'constant error rate' theory and shown it's a good fit for the data chance of…

It's very hard to replace SQL. Almost impossible, even. This paper by Andy Pavlo and Michael Stonebraker makes a case for how there have been numerous efforts to replace SQL, but none of them succeeded or will ever succeed in future.

True, but SQL became the universal data access language for apps, with ORMs hiding the complexity. It’s like POSIX — far from perfect but unlikely to ever get replaced
