Hi! I'm building software at @planetscale, previously at @workos, @trycampsite, @github, @stripe, and @tuple.

cloudflare blog is glowed up — inside and out 🥹

built on emdash, ai search, the newly released workers cache, astro and hyperdrive + planetscale

@yakkomajuri @PlanetScale Got it. Glad you found a workaround. Eventually, we should enable folks to do everything in Terraform that they can in the UI. Will share this with the team.

Keep living dangerously! 😄

@mscccc So many banger lines in the Wired article, but my favorite has to be:

Some employees are being asked to finish two tasks per week.

The PlanetScale developer education team is growing.

We're looking for p99 individuals that love explaining deeply technical concepts, supporting + building our engineering community, and don't mind nerding out over databases with me all day long.

I joined PlanetScale a little over 2 years ago with 0 background in the "developer experience" space. Before that I was a CS faculty member and before that a research software engineer.

The past two years has been the best of my career. I get to work with some of the most talented educators, engineers, and marketers in the whole tech space. 10/10 would recommend.

Come join the ride. Shoot me a DM.

@fatih @PlanetScale @trycampsite Thanks, Fatih! 😊

I started at @PlanetScale this week!

We loved PlanetScale at @trycampsite, and it's incredible what they've shipped since we were a customer a little over a year ago. Exciting time to join the team. 🕺

I wrote about a mundane agent PR I almost merged last week. it fixed the bug, passed review, and made the codebase a little bit worse. there was nothing remarkable about it...and that's kind of the point. https://t.co/KUaNx7a5nT

Today's my last day at @WorkOS! What an awesome team. Learned and shipped a ton. Grateful. 💙

Time to shred what remains of the snow at Crested Butte. Then off to my next adventure. 🚀
