For a personal project, I needed a small and lightweight HTTP regression test runner. Hurl was the closest thing I found, but I needed real scripting in my assertions. So I wrote Snag, It's written in Rust and uses TOML for test definitions and Rhai for assertions and scripting. It's pretty early in development but it's usable.

Abstract Eleven years ago, the Dataflow Model paper argued that unbounded, out-of-order data was the new normal, and that we must stop waiting for data to ever become complete. It proposed a unified model (windowing, triggers, watermarks, and retractions) for freely trading off correctness, latency, and cost across batch and streaming engines. On the occasion of its VLDB Test of Time award, we grade our own workβa paper about streaming analytics, in truth if not in nameβon what aged well, what aged badly, and what we missed.

Inspired by how bee swarms find the best nest - scouts argue for their picks, strongest conviction wins. Same here: models independently respond, then anonymously review each other (no playing favorites), vouch/challenge/build on ideas, and a chairman synthesizes the survivor. The cross-pollination between different model biases is where the magic is. Gets outputs none of them produce alone.

Roughly speaking, the way current AI coding agents/harnesses work is by either: a) Pulling in appropriate text snippets of code across multiple files and handing them to the agent, or b) Parsing code to make high dimensional embeddings to approximate a symptom map, and hand that to the agent. Both of these approaches skyrocket the token count, add to wall clock time, contribute to context drifting, add to the model's thinking tokens to discover the structure of the program, and then FORGET most of it when Claude Code compacts, or ALL of it if it's a multifile refactoring because all line numbβ¦

I built Qumra 3 years ago for myself. It's a Loom like desktop screen and camera recorder for Mac and Windows. I used Loom at the time and had a problem with the pricing, and the editor never did what I needed. As a software developer I record a lot of short videos for clients: showing a bug, a fix, an example. After recording I usually needed edits. Cut a part where something showed up on screen that shouldn't be there. Silence the filler words instead of cutting them. Remove parts of the video by deleting them from the transcript. So the editor is built around those three things. Later, witβ¦
A MacOS menu bar app for brown/speech blocker noise. I've been using online "white noise" generators for over a decade because I find they reliably help me get in the zone for an hour or two of work. I didn't like the context switching cost of needing to find the active browser tab, so I created a mac menu bar app that makes it almost frictionless to enable/disable brown noise. How to try it: See releases zip on the GH repo. It's macOS 13+, notarized. Technical details: - brown noise via leaky integration - a low-pass, speech blocker via pink noise through a 10-band EQ - all synthesized in reβ¦

In distributed system correctness is not about a program being complied well with the computer and itβs network, itβs only correctness can be only specified by itβs definition, assumptions and failure model. One of the area in which we can see this happen is when system breaks the idea of single machine model and itβs assumptions. Networks can drop or reorder messages, clock drift, nodes can fail in mid operations and network partitions can occur. These are normal conditions, not rare edge cases.
