Today I created a bug and then fixed it before it impacted anything at all!
It was one of those subtle issues that justify a comment in the source to explain WHY a piece of code is written in a particular way.
I was suppressing duplicate r…
I just updated my current project to use both #shellcheck and #shfmt (yes, I am writing a lot of bash at the moment).
Writing #bash like a grown-up feels weird.
But a good weird!
I am suddenly feeling the urge to rip #moggie's search engine code out and put in a stand-alone project so it can potentially be used for other things.
I am resisting this urge, since I would like to get #moggie itself closer to being usab…
Measuring the performance of the RPC Kittens HTTP server was kinda fun.
I used siege and tested a few different workloads. The peak performance I saw was 6000 r/s, for a trivial function on Python 3.14. The same thing clocked at 4000r/s on…
I think my #kettlingar #RPCKittens side-quest from #moggie work may be slowly winding down.
I've got the kittens working well, got tests written and passing on multiple Python versions. I am happy with the performance and feature set.
Now …
In *totally unrelated* news, I've got a working asyncio HTTPS server which is capable of logging the IP address of the connecting client!
What will I think of next!
Why is it that whenever I decide to create something semi-interesting in #Python I soon find myself monkey-patching the Python standard library?
I love that I can!
I think it's unfortunate that I need to.
Maybe I'm just a massive outlier.
Did a bit of work towards making my #RPCKittens a project others might use or contribute to: basic automated tests and started using #pylint.
I added a git hook that runs both before pushing, to keep me honest.
Oh, and I found a use for ty…
I was explaining my #RPCKittens to a pretty seasoned programmer friend. He was struggling not to roll his eyes out of his head at me re-inventing the wheel again, again.
When I started talking about using HTTP/1.1 chunked encoding to expos…
For pagekite.net, I am currently experimenting with bootstrapping and configuring servers using shell scripts built/configured using a #jinja static site generator.
If this works well (so far, it does), it replaces #Ansible ...

I just gave a little lightning talk about the #shebonk at #WHY2025.
The talk was based on this Mastodon thread: https://floss.social/@HerraBRE/114398279974025867
