Just shipped real-time chat for Findora, a Lost & Found web app I’m building for my university campus.
The goal is simple: help students and staff reconnect with lost items faster through direct, in-app communication between finders and owners.

Day 1.

Finally started building Vestlee 👨🏽‍💻

Been dealing with the same annoying problem for way too long and I got tired of acting like it’s normal 😭

So instead of complaining about it again… I’m building.

This one might actually be crazy.

Stay tuned.

Distributed systems are hard, but that’s exactly why building them is worth it.

Exactly-Once in Distributed Systems 🔑
Today I learned why exactly-once is so tricky: true exactly-once is impossible. Networks fail, messages get lost, and retries can duplicate actions.
The way systems handle it? Combine retries, idempotency keys, and transaction states to

simulate exactly-once.
Why it matters: in critical systems like payments, duplication or loss can be disastrous. Understanding this makes you think beyond code about reliability, trust, and real-world consequences.

@TuoyoS26091 How ?

Think your background jobs in Node.js are really running in the background? Think again. If your worker shares the same process as your web server, CPU-heavy jobs can still block requests. True decoupling = separate process.

Spent most of my time today writing a new article on why running workers separately doesn’t make them microservices, sketching some system diagrams in Excalidraw.
I had a Productive day!
