I am looking into the sort performance updates (especially rank()). Poor rank() performance was one of the biggest bottlenecks in KickoffLabs back in the day and forced us to move to Redis for these calculations.
Welcome to My Blog.
Here, you will find posts, links, and more about code (primarily Ruby), business (bootstrapped SaaS), and a little of everything in between.
CleanShot Custom Backgrounds
CleanShot X has a nice update (version 4.5) that allows you to control the background of a screenshot.
Before this update, you could only apply a background when you did a full screenshot, and there was no option except for your current wallpaper (I think 🤔).
If you want to use the new background feature with the window screenshot option, you must set the default background as transparent.
CakeBrew is an excellent GUI overview of your HomeBrew install.
UPDATE: CakeBrew may not be getting updates anymore. Still works today, but who knows for how much longer.

Titleless Posts
I have more to share on why I chose Micro.Blog, but one of the features that were most important to me going forward was "Titleless Posts." This allows you the same basic writing flow as a Tweet (or, I guess, Toot these days).
Most feed readers are a bit behind on this. Dave Winer explains a bit more about this.
My feed reader of choice, FeedBin has had good support for this for years. The support for Twitter is especially good and has made it the primary way I keep up with Twitter and avoid the mess (sometimes) it has become.
Hopefully, Mastodon support is on the way.
A nice parlay win going into Sunday.
I should have gone with gut and take the Warriors moneyline.
Technology begins by making old work easier, but then it requires that new work be better
Sixers got lucky in the end. Lakers choked on two free throws, ran out of gas, and are not a good team.
What a horrific collapse by the #Sixers. vs the Lakers. The Sixers are the worst-coached team in the NBA. #docsgottago.
