Even faster asin() was staring right at me
I don't normally do follow-ups and never this quick. After posting that last article, it was fun to read the comments on Reddit and Hacker News as they rolled in. I even found other discussions . I couldn't help wonder, "Could I have made it even more performant?" . After heading home I decided to take another look.

An ode to bzip
The story goes like this. ComputerCraft is a mod that adds programming to Minecraft. You write Lua code that gets executed by a bespoke interpreter with access to world APIs, and now you’re writing code instead of having fun. Computers have limited disk space, and my /nix folder is growing out of control, so I need to…

AI didn't simplify software engineering: It just made bad engineering easier
AI tools lower the barrier to producing code, not to building reliable systems. The hard part — maintaining alignment between specifications, tests, and implementation — has not gone away. Expertise still matters.

The unlikely story of Teardown Multiplayer
Multiplayer has been the single most requested feature for Teardown ever since before its initial release. Synchronizing physics over the network is already known to be hard, and on top of that we have a completely dynamic, destructible world with full modding support. For a long time, we considered the whole idea…

Lies I was told about collaborative editing, Part 2: Why we don't use Yjs
In part 1 of this series , we found that users generally view the most popular collaborative text editing algorithms (including the most popular library, Yjs ) as silently corrupting their documents when the algorithms resolve direct editing conflicts. We argued that, while this is potentially ok for live…

Are LLM merge rates not getting better?
I was reading the metr article on how llm code passes test much more often than it is of mergeable quality . They look at the performance of llm s doing programming when the success criterion is “passes all tests” and compare it to when the success criterion is “would get approved by the maintainer”. Unsurprisingly…

The Isolation Trap: Erlang
Erlang's mailbox design is more disciplined than Go's channels: only the owning process can read from a mailbox, and sends are asynchronous. Yet the four failure modes of shared mutable state still show up, just in different shapes.

Returning to Rails in 2026
I love a good side-project. Like most geeks, I have a tendency to go down rabbit holes when faced with problems - give me a minor inconvenience and I’ll happily spend weeks building something far more elaborate than the situation warrants. There’s joy in having a playground to explore ideas and “what ifs”; Building…

Many SWE-bench-Passing PRs would not be merged
We find that roughly half of test-passing SWE-bench Verified PRs written by recent AI agents would not be merged into main by repo maintainers. A naive interpretation of benchmark scores may lead one to overestimate how useful agents are without more elicitation or human feedback.

Faster asin() was hiding in plain sight
This one is going to be a quick one as there wasn't anything new discovered. In fact, I feel quite dumb. This is really a tale of " Do your research before acting and know what your goal is, " as you'll end up saving yourself a lot of time. Nobody likes throwing away work they've done either, and there could be…
