@jarredsumner Love the vision, but after trying to use Bun.SQL this week, there’s a lot of polish required before it’s usable. Maybe a third of the bugs in a task worker system I wrote are bugs in Bun

@malthe Yes please! ❤️

[Carl Jackson @zenazn]

@jarredsumner Sounds like a way to turn typos into performance nightmares

[Carl Jackson @zenazn]

@matasar Twitter search is irreparably fucked so I had to scroll an awful lot to troll you today ❤️

People are asking me what I’ll do if and when Twitter starts to fall apart. I am not looking for a replacement and will ride this plane all the way to the ground, at which point I’ll be free. Thank you.

@jarredsumner Reminds me of some code I wrote to parse url params at Stripe. Try `[card]number=4242424242424242` or `card][[[[[number=4242424242424242`

I love it when @stripe stress-tests our internal phishing training cc @edwinwee

@spikebrehm Maybe we should send popcorn

@jarredsumner TextDecoder performance bit me recently when trying to use apache-arrow in node. There was a ~2x improvement between 16.x and 18.x, but both were hilariously slow. Excited you’re working on this!

@matasar I did a double header with Oma’s, which to be clear was excellent! But not life-changing, which is apparently the bar tonight

Pinolo gelateria in Portland is the best ice cream relative I’ve had in years. I literally went back for seconds cc @matasar

@edwinwee ohhhhhh so that's how a baguette moves!

"There's an old joke within Google that there are two ways of doing things: the one that's deprecated, and the one that's not-yet-ready."

@asolove Maybe this is what used to happen during yearly planning

@jeff_weinstein Name them Credit and Debit!

@amyngyn it turns out your true self still really loves dreamcatcher

[Carl Jackson @zenazn]

@sbensu I will gladly build this product for you! When do I start?

[Carl Jackson @zenazn]

Just passed a very important moment in @watershed's growth: we added animated Slack emoji for all of our operating principles! (most of the credit goes to @_yuhsin, who was up until midnight drawing some of the gifs frame-by-frame!)

@dgryski At @stripe we took a very similar approach to protecting credit card data. For us, I think it was a struct with a private member, plus redacting String(), MarshalText(), MarshalJSON(), etc. We named our Unwrap() “UnsafeString()” to make it more obvious in code review
