You picked JavaScript (or Python, or Go, or Java) partly so you'd never have to think about memory. No malloc, no free, no dangling pointers. The runtime cleans up after you. So why does your app get slower the longer it runs? Why does the process climb from 80 MB to 1.5 GB overnight, then feel inst
A great CLAUDE.md is not the longest one. It is the one where every line changes what Claude does. The whole skill is knowing what belongs in it — and, just as importantly, what does not. Start with a one or two line project description and your stack, with version numbers. Claude infers a lot from

I've been building PR Focus, a Chrome extension that helps developers triage GitHub pull requests. One of the first decisions I had to make was: how do I actually sort PRs by priority? The obvious answer is "use AI to score the risk". But I didn't want to rely 100% on an LLM because: AI is inconsist
Disclosure: I work on Opennomos (linked at the end). This is a thinking-out-loud post about a problem we've spent the last year trying to model. Ship a Web3 product launch and you've watched this play out: Week 1: 10,000 wallets connect, TVL spikes, Twitter +5K followers. The CFO smiles. The VC retw

So far we have seen the planner build candidate paths and rank them by cost, choose join methods and join orders, and estimate those costs from statistics. But before any of that cost comparison begins, the planner does something else first. It takes the incoming Query tree and rewrites it once into
