Will Schor came to Bug Bash Europe & @gotocon.com to talk about how @netflixeng.bsky.social does implementation-agnostic testing. They’re focusing on capable, generic generators (and you should too). www.youtube.com/watch?v=gINX...

Videos from Bug Bash Europe are starting to drop. First up, Don Syme, designer of F# and co-originator of async/await, on the shift to agentic automation in software development, and what it means for the way we build and maintain code. www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ujA...

The gom jabbar, but for distributed systems. Antithesis head zealot Carl Sverre on how you get from QuickCheck to deterministic simulation testing, a.k.a. making computers fight for their lives in a hermetically sealed box of pain. www.youtube.com/watch?v=L0p3...

Verus is a formal verification tool for code written in Rust. It's one of the most exciting directions in formal methods today, because it checks the executable code, not just a specification. (Our recent blog post explains why this matters!)

Many elegant theoretical proofs exist for distributed systems, but local hardware and production realities rarely play by the rules. UIUC professors Ram Alagappan and Aishwarya Ganesan join us on this episode of the Bug Bash podcast to talk about bridging that gap.
Their work on data infrastructure, storage interfaces, and recovery protocols has been influential at @tigerbeetle.com, @warpstream.com, and many other companies. Youtube: youtu.be/02iDXxItZ-g Spotify: open.spotify.com/episode/7Gei... Apple podcasts: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/b...
You move faster when you've got a strong quality framework in place. This involved significant, risky work on the @paradedb.com storage engine, verified with Antithesis. We're proud to help our customers pull off feats like this.
Two weeks ago, @planetscale.com launched TIN. They benchmarked it against us, and it was very fast. So we spent those two weeks making ParadeDB faster without their tradeoffs. Today, we are faster than TIN. www.paradedb.com/blog/opening...
Here's Will Schor of @netflixeng.bsky.social at Bug Bash Europe. "Time in production is one of the key ways we gain confidence in our code... but even after a long period of time you can still have latent bugs if you're not writing the right tests."

Today's "Andy at Sea" Database Seminar Speaker: Marco Primi will discuss how @antithesis.com automatically finds bugs in database systems (aka the most important software in the world). Public Zoom talk at 4:30pm ET. YouTube video available after: db.cs.cmu.edu/events/andy-...
Mutation testing is a powerful technique that essentially lets you test your testing. Historically, it's been extremely difficult to mutation test test suites for distributed systems -- we've just solved that with a new Antithesis agent skill that creates deep distributed system bugs.
On the Bug Bash podcast this week, Anjana Rajan and Jonathan Ring from Atalanta join us to talk about moving formal methods out of the lab and into nuclear reactors, space missions, and other real world settings where failure is not an option.
