  1. Embassy and async Rust are probably the best things that have happened to the embedded world in the past decade!

    C RTOSes are conceptually nice, but such as pain to use in the real world, a lean framework like embassy is the natural evolution.

    The best thing is that embassy can actually be considered as a real-time "OS" (you can read more here: https://kerkour.com/introduction-to-embedded-development-wit...).

  2. TimescaleDB was such a great project!

    I'm really sad to see them waste the opportunity and instead build an nth managed cloud on top of AWS, chasing buzzword after buzzword.

    Had they made deals with cloud providers to offer managed TimescaleDB so they can focus on their core value proposition they could have won the timeseries business, but ClickHouse made them irrelevant and Neon already has won the "Postgres for agents" business thanks to a better architecture than this.

  3. For TLS I would recommend https://github.com/pingooio/pingoo instead which has automatic certificate management and is really easy to setup.
  4. Interesting proposal.

    The current situation is getting worse day after day because everybody want to ScRaPe 4lL Th3 W38!!

    Verifying Ed25519 signature is almost free on modern CPUs, I just wonder why they go with an obscure RFC for HTTP signatures instead of using plain JSON Web Tokens in an header.

    JWTs are universal. Parsing this custom format will certainly lead to a few interesting bugs.
