On 9/11, our families' grief belonged to the nation. Here I am as a child, standing in the cold wet field where my father was killed, as part of the nation's collective mourning. It's now your turn: honor the 25th anniversary by volunteering.

i feel strongly that this is the most well-managed account this site has had to offer. so much of the experience i've tried to curate through MythoAmerica and its "flashing back recent memories before an End we know is coming" vision has been achieved and exceeded with the ___ Years Ago Live format. yes, most of everyone's commentary has centered around the nearing climax of 9/11, but what's more crucial for me is the simulation of something more; this kind of slow-walk through history that can elicit in an audience the bittersweet realization that everything that has ever happened–– our triumphs, our tragedies, our joys and folly–– all have delivered us to where we were always headed. to do this retrospective requires a lot of quiet dedication, hours a day, and also an appreciation for the unique medium that is inherent to posting on Twitter to pull it off. and so even after tomorrow arrives and passes, i will continue to have good things to say about this account. because many have tried and failed in this gimmick/aesthetic page genre, and it's almost always because they did not have the discipline to maintain and further what inspired people in the first place. i still believe this site can be engaging in a way no other can when the effort is put in.

Next week in NYC we're hosting @GergelyOrosz of @Pragmatic_Eng 🔥🔥 More has changed in software engineering this year than the last decade combined. I can't wait to dig into this with Gergely and hear his thoughts on what comes next. RSVP below:

inspired by this I photographed our book towers and had Astra build a 3D model that allows me to pull (and find!) any book. now I’m wondering if I can create an AR app w/ part number overlays for my car…

in case you missed it: if you’re running your agents, infra or dev laptops behind Cloudflare Gateway, we can now detect & block packages - incl specific versions - from reaching your machines. More to come on the software supply chain security front 😎

building something new on the side & using better-result is mandatory. as someone who wrote a lot of Go and plumbed through a lot of context.Context’s, the cancellation/retry/result patterns in better-result are so much nicer to use for cancellation propagation/deadlines in TS.

three things: 1. glad to see the @anomalyco team use Pipelines & R2DC! 2. product goal was to make data pipelines approachable to app devs, not just the teams used to running Spark/Flink/etc. new era. 3. told you we're building a cloud 😎

related: use Cloudflare Sandboxes as a self-hosted GitHub Actions runner. since Sandboxes support Docker-in-Docker, you can offload your runners to CF infra. good middle-ground between "will my Actions run at all" and "migrate to @cloudflare/ci" 😎
