It's a big day for us – Redis 8 is GA today. It's fast, loaded with new features, comes with the tools in Redis Stack included – and it's open source. Read more here: redis.io/blog/redis-8...

I think Starbucks throttles my docker pulls.

Google Calendar, why do you insist on moving my AirPods to my mac, are you going to play me some music?

I have an extra USB-Cord on my desk I keep plugging into my devices, the problem? It's the one cord on my desk not plugged into any power.

I was playing some Christmas songs on my piano in my office last night while my three year old was playing with my desk. of course my apple watch unlocks my mac while my he is playing with my keyboard, so all sorts of interesting 'code' to undo this morning when I started work :)

New apple intelligence visual intelligence seems to work? Wonder to what extent it will hold up!

Ahh yes, that TODO i forgot to add a comment for, turns out I forgot. . . to do it 😅

Dear friends, I'm rejoining Redis. It's a long story, so it deserved a blog post to explain all the details: antirez.com/news/144

I switched to a new keyboard about 10 days ago, then I immediately went to re:invent so this is really only my second day using it. The weirdest thing is actually having the cmd and option buttons in the right place!

If you're interested in learning how to build Agentic #RAG using #LhamaIndex, #AmazonBedrock, and #Redis—just pushed a few updates in a repository that you can try all this. ⬇️ github.com/redis-develo...

I do like the copilot integration for rider / intellij, one comment though, and this might not be something fixable atm, it would be nice if the copilot auto-complete also did the imports for you (like the regular autocomplete does).

Packing for re:invent, first time traveling alone in a couple of years, have to say it's nice that now my laptop/phone/gaming console/kindle all use the same charger. Only need a lighting for my airpods and the charger for my Apple watch, so 3 chargers, not so bad (2 if I upgraded my airpods)

My 3 year old has preschooler wipe clean book (basically a book with basic skills and a dry erase marker) It seems odd to me that “dry erase” markers are much harder to read once they dry 🤔

I got a new keyboard today (keychron Q1 Max), I like it a lot, but as my fingers get used to it, I have to say that the typos have been much worse today than normal.

usually, when an #oss contributor opens a PR to a project I maintain without tests, I just write them myself. The contributor's given up enough of their time, and if I don't understand their contribution enough to write the tests. . . I shouldn't be merging it anyway.

This year #GivingTuesday falls on December 3rd, which is also my birthday! 🎂 To celebrate, I'm giving away five free "floating head" avatars and donating 50% of all illustration orders placed between now and 12/3! Share this post to enter the giveaway! reverentgeek.com/shop/

Great summary, 10/10 no notes

Toddlers have it figured out, they have an ungodly amount of energy, and then they sleep 10-13 hours a day. Slightly jealous of my 3 year old.

Really great tip if you don’t own your own domain!

Post a film gif from the year you were born.

Omg…

Anyone here use the MSN, or hard copy user manuals?

Uhoh my followers are lost!

For those who celebrate. Not that I’ve had 30 consecutive free minutes where I’ve had the mental faculties to sit down with my SteamDeck since my second kid was born 😂.

The first iteration of my Bluesky bot - the one behind the @javabubble.bsky.social - is now available on GitHub! Anyone can easily spin up a similar bot that reposts and follows based on a list of tags. Ironically, it's built in Kotlin 😅 github.com/raphaeldelio... #Kotlin #bolhatech #Java

With Redis 8, there is a return on investing in the community edition (the code you just download from Github), probably what made this possible is the license change. Anyway interesting new features / improvements: redis.io/blog/redis-8...

I currently have only one feature request:

Anyone else notice that X isn’t anywhere in the top 100 domain rankings anymore? radar.cloudflare.com/domains Twitter is in the top 200 (used to be mid 30s a year ago), X appears somewhere between 500 and 200. Wonder if the combined unit would have given up any ground

Was looking at a thread I was writing to in slack last night from my phone, Apple autocorrect changed the word "deserialization" to "destabilization" and I didn't notice. Completely changes the meaning of what I was trying to say!

Late to the party, but this has to be one of the most impressive things I’ve seen from a musician. Chad Smith (of Red Hot Chili Peppers fame) completely improvising a brilliant drum part to “The Kill” about 10 meters into the song. youtu.be/HMBRjo33cUE?...

I’ve legitimately been scrolling Bluesky like I used to scroll Twitter when it was Twitte. To soon to tell, but this could really be the one.

What do 200 electrocuted monks have to do with Redis 8, the newest version of #Redis? Watch to uncover the connection, and discover how Redis 8 is pushing the limits of real-time data processing. 🚀 youtu.be/ok2mSw-z1Q0 #bolhadev cc @samsantosb.bsky.social @sseraphini.bsky.social

Feels to me like starter packs are Bluesky’s contacts crawler - way to dramatically accelerate growth of the social graph and scale the platform quickly and with relevance. If this ends up being the X-killer, they may be a large reason why.

This might really be it

Just finished pressure washing my driveway wearing shorts and flip flops in mid November- because, Florida.

I’m not saying that Apple Intelligence’s notifications summary needs to be perfect - but this is pretty egregious.
