Who asked @UseLemfi to update thier UI. Was there any product designer plus Ux involved? This is too messy on my eyes, please Keep ur UI's simple, the card view isn't working.
What a privilege it is to be able to run, afford a gym membership, buy healthy food, pay your bills, walk on your own legs, see with your own eyes, think clearly, work every day, and push your body to become stronger.
Never take these blessings for granted.
This week's incidents are a reminder about why "human in the loop" is important. Ie, read your damn code. Understand your systems. Know whats in there and what can go wrong.
No LLM advancement will replace human understanding.
if you do not have CVE scanning on every PR in 2026, you are not going to make it. it was the baseline 5 years ago but most teams skip it.
You simply can't afford to not do it today.
The older I get the more I understand why people say, “When you love your life, you can’t be around people who hate theirs because they’re always either complaining or comparing.”
I just finished an interview please if you're Fintech and looking for an engineer available in Lagos I'm here o. 😭 even if it's consulting.
Upwork is dead, LinkedIn works but too much work authorizations.
I write Flutter, Nest , TS and I can setup up docker and open to the JVMs.

I’ve realized I’m happiest when my days are full
work, gym, tennis, dinner with friends, whatever
too much free time sounds great until you actually have it
We’re excited to announce Anthony Alaribe (@tonialaribe), co-founder of @monoscope_tech, as a speaker at SysConf 2026!
His talk is titled “Timefusion: Retrospective on running a custom timeseries database in production.”
Anthony’s talk at #SysConf25 focused on the motivation for building Timefusion, a time series database built in Rust.
This year, his talk examines the reality of powering an observability platform using Timefusion over the last year, including painful incidents, what has gone well and the techniques the @monoscope_tech team has implemented to stay fast at scale.
This is the hardest thing I've done in a long time.
We moved all Monoscope users to Timefusion (our in-house S3-backed time series database) after more than a year of running some customers on Timefusion while others stayed on the legacy columnar DB.
As you can imagine, everything went to shit. 2 weeks of intermittent downtime and degraded service for a lot of users. TLDR: some Timefusion assumptions didn't hold when more throughput was thrown at it. E.g., some queries got as slow as 30 seconds instead of the usual < 500 ms. But we also couldn't afford to stay on the old system (Too expensive).
Anyway, still a lot of work to be done, especially querying really wide time ranges or very old data. But we'll get there.
The issues were mainly about lock contention at scale and memory management with so many tenants. We have to sort data as it comes in, and who knew sorting was such an expensive operation (memory-wise)? 😂
