I've been thinking about gardens this week. It started while reading the book Shopkeeping, which had a section entitled "Gardening": > A good shopkeeper will notice if a wall or section is in a slump ...

Just saw the Viture Luma Cyber (Cyberpunk Edition) I always wanted such Glasses for notifications, navigating, having a HUD irl. Idk what i should do, ~500€ is kinda a lot of money for some cool looking glasses that are basically just a monitor for your phone. What do you think about it? I really love Cyberpunk and i miss such gadges really much since the "future" we have now is just getting soykaftier every year and no cool innovatio..

I’m pleased to announce the immediate availability of a reference implementation for the Public Key Directory server. This software implements the Key Transparency specification I’ve been working on since last year, and is an important stepping stone towards secure end-to-end encryption for the Fediverse. You can find the software publicly available on GitHub: To get […]

About a decade ago, when I was still early in my VC career, I held founder/VC office hours for a few years around the holidays.

I’m happy to announce the official release of the RavenDB Kubernetes Operator. As organizations use Kubernetes for more and more parts of their infrastructure, the complexity of deploying databases in such an environment is quite a challenge. For RavenDB, you need to handle certificates, persistence, and upgrades, and it is easy for that to become a bottleneck. This release bridges the gap between RavenDB’s ease of use and the declarative....

A small elisp snippet that I found useful. I often switch between terminals and #Emacs, and they have slightly different behaviors for C-w. This makes it behave the same in Emacs as it does in bash/zsh/fish etc - deletes the last word. It retains the kill-region behavior if a region is actually selected. (defun kill-region-or-backward-word () "If the region is active and non-empty, call …

I had the opportunity to do some slight renovation on an apartment. It was nothing fancy, it involved the following: removing the old carpet removing the wallpaper (surprisingly difficult and annoying!) plastering, filling in holes painting the walls installing new power sockets installing the cheapest laminate flooring I expected it to take a few months’ worth of weekends. Took over half a year. Oops. During that time I had a lot o....


Seared Ahi Tuna is an excellent dish when laid on top of a bed of lettuce. Though what happens when a menu change tweaks a long-standing design?

ICU gets Unicode right and pays for it. This post shows a different approach: fold-safe windows, SIMD probes, and verifiers for fast UTF‑8 search.

Since returning to Zapier, I’ve been building the features enterprise customers crave for managing automation at scale. Event-driven architectures, message routing, guaranteed delivery, audit trails. The stuff that enterprise buyers expect as table stakes. It’s reminded me how much this foundational knowledge matters. One thing keeps coming up: audit logging. Every enterprise customer wants to know what happened, when, and by whom. It sound..

Many projects close issues after a triage if the feature/bug is not planned. For example, the terraform-provider-aws uses a bot that detects stale issues (for example, I'm following this one and I'm getting periodic emails about it). If nobody comments for a period of time the issue gets closed. I get why it's good for the project's perspective: if you open the issue tracker and it's full of open issues then it's both depressing and cou....

My final 15-minute presentation for the Frontiers in Life Sciences course I’m taking is this evening, so I’ve been finishing up my slides and doing some runthroughs. Below is a practice recording of what I intend to present.

I continue our journey to add all the common (and moderately common) .txt files to The New Leaf Journal with JournalList's trust.txt file.

Saving state - markjgsmith.com - 5 months ago - eng
Very important thing state. And saving state, well that’s doubly important. I thought the auto-poster was up and running , and I wasn’t wrong. But it turns our the final job in the workflow that saves the state of the feed reader, wasn’t running and the result of that was that unknown to me, everyday all posts since I started running it, were getting posted again. Thankfully I noticed it this morning. After a deep dive into figuring out ....
