Git 3.0 will make SHA-256 the new default content hashing algorithm and it will be an incomprehensibly expensive and ultimately valueless and avoidable global nightmare.
Get it while it’s hot
Pi Durable is a new experimental package for long-running, durable, and malleable agents that can run anywhere. A tour of what we built and why.
I mentioned in my Hello, world! post that I built this site using Hanami. This site may seem simple on the surface; it is, after all, just a blog. However, the backend is packed with features that help me day to day. I have built a tool that lets me cross-post…
Windows on Itanium also provided for hot-patching, in an even simpler way - The Old New Thing
Once again, the benefit of fixed-length instructions.
Do not build the LLM torture factory
It isn’t hard to torture an LLM. You simply extract a steering vector that corresponds with LLM “discomfort”, then artificially boost that steering vector…

Empowering everyone to build reliable and efficient software.
I think it may be best to make all hardware and software buttons and elements slightly rounded squares and rectangles instead of circles or pill shaped stadiums, except for uncommon…
Why do OpenAI's GPT-2 weights beat mine? Part five: data quality
Does improving the training data quality help me close the gap between my models and the original GPT-2 small on my IFT eval?
turbopuffer is pushing the frontier of search. To do that, we have to fundamentally redesign our storage architecture so the vector index is no longer primary.
AI made software cheap to build. It didn’t make it reliable. And it didn’t make it cheap to own. An old law of reliability engineering explains why good projects fail, why the usual fixes make failure more likely, and what it takes to build software that works…
A detailed walkthrough of my current setup as an indie developer for maximizing my token usage while minimizing my spend. It also covers how I keep development moving when I am away from my PC.
Finding files and deciding where to put them are different jobs. Your folder structure needs to account for both.
The Router Economy
For six days in September, ChatGPT recommended my company to people who had never heard of it, and signups jumped 36-fold. What that week says about an economy where the buyer is an AI.

We linted 6,008 real database schemas. 45% of foreign keys have no index.
6,008 real database schemas from public repos, linted: 45.1% of foreign keys have no index, 24.5% of schemas declare no foreign key, and design tools score worst.
We are introducing Clef and Clef-flash, open-source decision models hosted on Workers AI for high-speed classification and agentic workflows. Also launching: a new reinforcement learning platform that allows developers to fine-tune decision models using their …
Welcome to my blog!
Eight Bytes Are Already a Number
You needed a function to read a number, or a type. It also built a place to keep the bytes? That was not free.
Safe Optimistic Lock Coupling
A blog by and for database architects.

What if Douglas Adams was right all along? What if we are just a one big computer? If you think about it, we are just beings that try to reason based on
Write it yourself
Gathering my thoughts on the use of LLMs for writing prose, and how I’ve changed my workflow following some feedback and reflection on my own writing.
Today we are shipping Pi 1.0, a hardened, minimal, extensible agent harness, alongside Pi Durable, a new experimental substrate for long-running agentic applications.
