thatrandybrown··on Small changes that made our daily stand-ups more useful
I feel so strongly about this topic that I recorded a podcast episode on it with my at the time business partner[1]. I think that maybe the only relevant reason to have a synchronous standup is to align on the biggest problem to solve in the next workday.

A standup of this model goes something like this: what is the goal for the day? What support is needed to make it happen? etc.

thatrandybrown··on Show HN: TraceRoot – Open-source agentic debugging for distributed services
I like the idea of this and the use case, but don't love the tight coupling to openai. I'd love to see a framework for allowing BYOM.
thatrandybrown··on Ask HN: What are you working on? (July 2025)
I sort of fell out of love with programming for a while, but lately I've been building a toy html engine in rust[1]. I hope to eventually build a full rust browser.
