This post first appeared on Nick Tune’s Medium page and is being republished here with the author’s permission. I have been using Claude Code for a variety of purposes, and one thing I’ve realized is that the more it understands about the functionality of the system (the domain, the use cases, the end-to-end flows), the […]
I wrote box, a thin wrapper around ssh for running commands on remote machines. I want a box-shaped interface for CI:
For 30 years, digital commerce has been a destination. We “go to” a website, a marketplace, or an app. In this single, bundled environment, we handle discovery, comparison, and checkout. The entire architecture of the web, from product pages to payment gateways, is built on this assumption. This assumption is now facing its first real […]

Space exploration demands software that is reliable, efficient, and able to operate in the harshest environments imaginable. When a spacecraft deploys a solar sail millions of kilometers from Earth, there’s no room for memory bugs, race conditions, or software failures. This is where Rust’s robustness guarantees become mission-critical. In this episode, we speak with Sebastian Scholz, an engineer at Gama Space, a French company pioneering solar sail and drag sail technology for spacecraft propul
Radar processes billions of location events daily, powering geofencing and location APIs for companies like Uber, Lyft, and thousands of other apps. When their existing infrastructure started hitting performance and cost limits, they built HorizonDB, a specialized database which replaced both Elasticsearch and MongoDB with a custom single binary written in Rust and backed by RocksDB. In this episode, we dive deep into the technical journey from prototype to production. We talk about RocksDB inte

I was on Talk Python again. We talked about the recent LLM course that I made for the TalkPython training website, but also got sidetracked to talk about ergonomic keyboards, the diskcache project and how to think about coding agents.
Pagefind is a new static site search tool built in Rust and ideal for Astro sites.
Until you know how long each task will take you, you can’t be predictably productive.
