we’re just getting started
ive been talking a lot about my own products recently, so taking a breath to give credit where its due to @polylane
after launching @foundermail_app 2 weeks ago i thought it was about time i make sure my proactive observability ducks are in a row... i mean, after all, those early first impressions are so important for a start up!
3 months ago @boristane gave me a demo, and while it was cool, it was a little rough around the edges, since then the team has really cooked... set up was super smooth and intuitive and its already suggested an improvement based on real data. really goes to show how important attention to detail really is!
while i hope i never have to hear from it again, im glad its there if i do!

outages.live/outages/github-…
feels like there's a new major outage every day now, and it's getting worse as agents eat more of the SDLC
so I built @outageslive, a live feed for agents that aggregates 250+ providers and dev tools
free, no signup, no api key
check out the website: outages.live
point your agent at it: outages.live/mcp
or put it on a screen in the office: outages.tv
turns out you need to read the code
some things I often say to claude when doing perf optimization work:
> how do we rewrite this to better leverage data-oriented design principles
> can you replace those hash tables with a flat array? can we make the pointers an index into the array? can we pack the most commonly used data into upper bits of the index?
> caching is cope for a slow design. do not add caches and delete all existing caches. instead, redesign it to be faster
> should this be a structure of arrays instead of an array of structures?
I’ll be judging a YC hackathon this weekend
it’ll be fun, come say hi!
Judge #2: @boristane CEO of @polylane
One of the most knowledgable Durable Actor people out there, impressing him will be TOUGH.
Fun facts:
- Sold 1st company to Cloudflare
- did 011y there
- Now is on a mission to make being oncall not a thing anymore
Expect fist-bumps.
