Weeknote 26, 2025


Hello world!

Another pretty late one this time around. My sense of time has been a little off recently, no thanks in part to being sick last week. This has also reflected in my work: it’s been pretty slow but I have ideas brewing.

With atex, I finished up my identity resolver service and cache for a new release. Did some light testing with Drinkup and it works as I expected, but there’ll be a real trail by fire when I use it for Comet. Now, I’ve started work on a macro to convert a lexicon definition into a bunch of schemas for validation. I haven’t really written macros before in Elixir so it’ll be a bit of a challenge but it sounds exciting.

Part way through working on atex this week, I found out about jujutsu (or jj) through a blog post from Sandy Maguire. So far it hasn’t been too much different from my use of Git, but I did use it’s switching stuff to “go back in time” to create a release commit because I had forgotten to do so before starting a new feature. It turned out to be way nicer than manually stashing my current work and going about it that way, so I’m excited to see what else this tool can do for me in the VCS space.
