POSSE stands for Publish (on your) Own Site, Syndicate Elsewhere. I first heard about it from Cory Doctorow. I’m experimenting with automation to convert posts tagged shortform into Mastodon threads (I’m mathstodon.xyz/@j2kun). I’m using Hugo as a static site generator, with the source a (private) G...

Happy mother’s day! This will be probably the last minor v1 release of GoReleaser. V2 will not be a big update, rather, it’ll be the same as v1.26, but removing all the deprecated stuff. That said, let’s see what’s new on this version!

At Neon, we are committed to listening to our customers and partners, and constantly striving to improve our services based on your feedback.

The CSS Anchor Positioning API is a game-changer in web development because it lets you natively position elements.

I’m in the process of retiring, and although I will not be settling back in my rocking chair—I have lots of writing I want to do—I’m no longer teaching. On April 30, I gave a farewell talk. If you’re interested, the video is here and the slides are here. (And you can always find both on my "Talks" w...

This is a guest article by Stanislav Kozlovski, an Apache Kafka Committer. If you would like to connect with Stanislav, you can do so on Twitter and LinkedIn.Originally developed in LinkedIn during 2011, Apache Kafka is one of the most popular open-source Apache projects out there.

Modern development demands speed and flexibility, but this is nowhere to be found in database development. Even when using managed databases, database workflows are still slow and prone to errors: setting up new instances takes time, undoing changes is risky, keeping data consistent across environme...

How we built a Kahoot alternative for the Supabase community meetups.

I’m Nolan, and I work on Fly Machines here at Fly.io. We’re building a new public cloud—one where you can spin up CPU and GPU workloads, around the world, in a jiffy. Try us out; you can be up and running in minutes. This is a post about LLMs being really helpful, and an extensible project you can b...

Starting today, Encore now supports using Neon Postgres for all Encore environments, including those in the cloud on Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Google Cloud Platform (GCP). “This means you can connect your Neon account to use highly scalable serverless Postgres for all your Encore managed environ...

This post is about risks in the development of increasingly capable AI, in particular the risk of losing control to AI and extinction risk. I'll suggest that a key question is, "When do we need to take this kind of risk seriously?" We'll look at the issue of 'agency overhang', which suggests that ad...

YC startups: we know the grind (customer obsession, rapid iterations, the need to scale with tight budgets) so we’re rolling out a special deal for you. If you’re in Y Combinator, you can claim $100k worth of Neon credits for your first year. And if you stumble upon a better deal somewhere else, let...

I’ve been learning recently about how to approximate functions by low-degree polynomials. This is useful in fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) in the context of “arithmetic FHE” (see my FHE overview article), where the computational model makes low-degree polynomials cheap to evaluate and non-polyno...

About two years ago, I switched teams at Google to focus on fully homomorphic encryption (abbreviated FHE, or sometimes HE). Since then I’ve got to work on a lot of interesting projects, learning along the way about post-quantum cryptography, compiler design, and the ins and outs of fully homomorphi...
