@thisishars @weswinder (i think this is what he meant)

[Maze @mazeincoding]

@thisishars @weswinder 1. you don’t have to sell what you’re building. a product is just an automated version of an outcome. so really you should be selling the outcome to test if people will buy it and then build

2. when you do get to building, you can talk about it as soon as it’s shipped

@ivanburazin @daytonaio @FirstMarkCap huge congrats

"for logged in users across Codex & Work we keep cache forever"

how does this even work??

[Tibo @thsottiaux]

Day 16/

You can now cache for 12h in the API and for logged in users across Codex & Work we keep cache forever and you don’t have any penalty for coming back to an old conversation or resuming after a few hours and are now guaranteed to hit the cache.

@thisishars @weswinder nah it doesn’t

[Maze @mazeincoding]

@leodev @freestyle_dev okay this one is impressive as hell

@zoidz00 @ryanvogel do you want to see the internet with content made by llms only

none of your users are reading code so that's very different. it’s not meant for people

[Maze @mazeincoding]

@0xrinx what's stopping you

[Maze @mazeincoding]

@LukeberryPi ah…

one of those accounts

spotting ai replies gets really easy when nobody is reading code anymore

[Mansi 👩‍💻 @MansiCodez]

Recently I interviewed a Senior Engineer.

Strong candidate.

Kafka? ✅
Redis? ✅
Microservices? ✅
Distributed systems? ✅

Then I asked:
"You're building the inventory service for a flash sale.
Only 1 item left in stock."

Two users hit “Buy Now” at the exact same millisecond.
Both requests pass the “is available?” check.
Both create an order.
Both deduct stock.

Now you’ve sold 2 items when only 1 existed.

How do you guarantee you never oversell — even with concurrent requests, client retries, and partial failures?

"Just use a database transaction."

Doesn’t fully solve it if both requests read `stock = 1` before either writes, or if the response is lost and the client retries.

"Check stock before deducting."

What happens when both checks happen at the same time?

"Use Redis DECR and reject if it goes negative."

What happens if Redis is down, or the decrement succeeds but the order is never persisted?

Your turn:
How would you design this inventory reservation API so concurrent buyers and retries never oversell the last item?

There’s a specific distributed-systems concept behind this.

And you’ll encounter it everywhere inventory, tickets, seats, coupons, and limited resources are involved.

@alex__backup @Protonnd yeah it’s also happening on a completely new account with no memory / chats

[Maze @mazeincoding]

@dora_lee_1344 @hiddnest @AsideAI oh i misread, lol. here

windows 11 25H2, build 26200

i changed my wallpaper to test if it would get more visible maybe and it did! so the effect is there

resolved ✅

arc walked so zen could run

[Maze @mazeincoding]

@rvgdev you've gotta try it, the whole experience is better. also more reliable (arc had gotten slower for me and more buggy)
