ππΌ I'm @ordepdev.
I like distributed systems, databases, and programming languages.
This website is where I share my articles, thoughts, and current readings. I'm reviving my online presence. Although I stopped writing and giving talks in 2021, I plan to write as often as possible from now on.
Once in a while, I write longer articles that might be worth sharing on Hacker News. Mostly about distributed systems, and engineering challenges.
You'll find a curated list of great computer science papers that I've enjoyed reading and re-reading over the past years.
After a full year of using Kafka Streams in Production on top of Kubernetes, I've documented the incidents we had over the year.
Introduced in 1979 by Ralph C. Merkle, the Merkle Tree is a data structure used for efficiently summarizing and verifying the integrity of large sets of data.
You'll find mostly shorter posts that capture specific insights or experiences. Each one focuses on a single idea worth sharing.
A few practical ways Iβm trying to write more often, based on habit-building, lowered expectations, and doing something every day. A follow-up on why I want to write more (again).
Writing is a skill. Start small, write often, share what you know, and let your posts become useful pointers, for others and for future you.
Explore why sharing thoughtful opinions on trends fuels personal growth, sparks meaningful discussion, and helps make sense of a noisy world.
In the meantime, I make time to read some books. Some tech, some not, mostly non-fiction. No fancy reviews, just honest takes.
