I tell people that when editing posts on my blog, I rely on AI to fix my code blocks if there are errors but I don't use it to fix typos or grammar. I feel like that keeps my blog human.

I'm building the best ebook reader you'll ever find. Supports all devices.

Very useful if you run into him in Georgia or if you want to get his tooth to make a guitar pick.

I think i'm gonna need an explanation for that sentence

“The Devil Went Down to Georgia” by Charlie Daniels

Other reference was Tenacious D in The Pick of Destiny.

Finally got around to making some updates to GoForGo. It's been really exciting learning Go as I work on it.

Hello!

I'm a software developer who's got an eye for performant and intuitive systems. I've worked at companies in the defense, finance, ecommerce, SaaS and security space. Most recently, I worked on building https://merrilin.ai, and I've written about this here: https://tech.stonecharioteer.com/posts/2026/merrilin/

I've also hit the HN frontpage 4 times last year, writing articles about learning Ruby and its internals.

I'm the guy you hire when you want performant code, something that's scalable in this world of vibe-coded stuff. I'm also excellent at writing deeply technical blog articles and have given talks at PyCon India, RootConf and the Bengaluru Python meetup group BangPypers. I'm also notorious for reading the PostgreSQL documentation on livestream.

We built https://merrilin.ai, primarily because we weren't happy with the book reading apps out there. Sign up for the waitlist!

I want to be as good as you at performance engineering. It's the direction I want for my career.

Something tells me that in a year we'll see a post about why you left OpenAI.

Sama won't listen to anyone. That's why. None of these CEOs are going to listen.

I prefer https://old.reddit.com/r/subredditsimulator in its heyday.

There is.

https://realpython.com/products/cpython-internals-book/ But it's for 3.9 and doesn't cover the massive changes regarding delayed annotations and the GIL updates

The Ruby under a Microscope guy is updating it.

That's nice too, but it seems to be more a tour of the code base, and doesn't have the detailled diagrams of memory layout that the Ruby book and the one posted here have.

This is fucking excellent. Especially since the companies do not honor their notification type.
