Week of December 20, 2025
Things I learned during the week ending December 20, 2025.
- New tools:
- gh-actions-lockfile to generate and verify lockfiles for gh-actions
- Proxyman is more user-friendly http debugging proxy than Charles Proxy on MacOS
- “Choose Boring Tech” by Dan McKinley
- “The failure mode of boring tech are well-understood”
- Notes from “Django rapid architecture”
- Recommends organizing the codebase with interfaces at the top layer followed by readers and “actions”, Finally, ‘data’ as the bottom layer to organize Django codebase to allow for a simple code structure that allows for scaling
- VectorChord is a faster pgvector alternative.
