Always nice to see some balance in a post but this is definitely an anti-serverless post 😂 And that’s fine, you didn’t have a great experience, own it and enjoy your rant! 🍿

Hard agree on this though! Still plenty of work to be done on local DX

Cool to see @cedardb.com will offer S3 object storage as an option for persistence

Always wondered what a MFA token generator does when I’m not looking at it

@zed.dev is building a database for linking software engineering artifacts (commits, ADRs, chats, calls) to arbitrary lines of code. It’s called DeltaDB and uses CRDTs

Not heard this one before but it’s got a nice ring to it — from @jazz.tools

Time Flies is surprisingly absorbing. Afterwards found myself looking at a real fly and wondering what bucket list items they were getting thru

Oh is it actually a thing or is this a hallucination…?

Quite like “scale to zero” as an alternative to the term “serverless”

This is from the @basetenco.bsky.social docs

Love how they still recognise how synonymous Redis is with caching alongside the obligatory AI pivot

The results… I was expecting 2 and 3 to be the winners but seems there are a lot of expert event sourcerers and lots who don’t care for it at all! Thanks for voting 💖

Toad will be an open-source alternative to Claude Code - looks really smooth already!

Early release of Beyond Vibe Coding by @addyosmani.bsky.social on @oreilly.bsky.social is already total gold for engineers/teams adopting LLMs for production software:

* Sensible differentiation between vibe coding and coding with intent
* Suggested AI assisted workflows
* Sound career advice

SnapBPF: Exploiting eBPF for Serverless Snapshot Prefetching

Solid paper showing how serverless compute (like AWS Lambda) could be optimised to significantly reduce boot times, making more latency-sensitive use cases possible and generally improving performance and cost

At least interested to see if the DX really is “best-in-class” for eg Durable Functions. Looks like you can execute via HTTP locally, which is cool

Hey Jon - do you have any info about what Qtap serverless deployment would look like when released?

Such a clean (embedded) Rust walkthru - and a cool use-case!

Big time! Been using it since 2014. Started using it as a “read later” app too since the closure of Pocket - works really well (supports highlights and comments)
