The Varlink Website

Taking place this week in Berlin was systemd's annual 'All Systems Go' developer conference

A hands-on tutorial exploring Varlink as a modern IPC mechanism. We build a simple hello world service in Rust and discuss why Varlink could become the backbone of our internal machine communication at DownToZero.

Formats over apps.

Query based compilers are all the rage these days, so it feels only appropriate to chart some treacherous shoals in those waters.

GENERATED columns, EXCLUDE constraints, DISTINCT ON, Foreign Data Wrappers... PostgreSQL has powerful features you might not know about. Here are my favorites.

Weeknotes 372 - CES 2025 as a fortune teller or misrepresenter for a new breed of robotic roommates. And other news from futures in agentic AI in physical space

Weeknotes 375 - From group chats to neighborhood sidewalks: how this week's OpenClaw experiment foreshadows the swarms of AI agents that will soon inhabit our physical world.

Weeknotes 376 - Another lens on agent swarms (or teams), as a bottom-up movement of computational devices iterating into agents. And more reflections on the news of last week.

Weeknotes 377 - AI is becoming an exoskeleton for thinking—but exoskeletons only work if there's still someone inside steering. Apps replacing agents require rethinking. And more from the news.
