I think we should all agree that we can stop giving out water bottles now. We all got 'em. Our personal water transportation is solved. Ok, thank you, bye.

macOS 26 feels like the Duplo version of an OS that once succeeded in converting an entire population of engineers and power-users, convincing them to shift their entire workflow over to an ecosystem with an unknown future. This only looks natural on a Mac in a brightly colored foam bumper case.

We're on the road to billions of records, but for now we'll settle with successfully supporting precise searches across hundreds of millions of records with sub-millisecond response times. This is unmatched transparency in tuning and scale, and it's available to you now—for free.

I'm unsubscribing from your mailing list not because "I don't recall signing up" but because I know for a fact I didn't sign up.

Searchcraft was designed for performance. It's quite literally the fastest engine in the galaxy, but today we've hit plaid with Searchcraft Core 0.9.0.

Cache is now available for sub-millisecond response times across hundreds of millions of documents.

Well done, @donmackinnon.dev and team. 🚀

Ship like you’re putting on a fitted sheet. Pick a corner and go. You’ll know fast if it’s wrong… way faster than trying to get it perfect on the first try. 50/50 odds. Ship it! 🚀

Still working on Searchcraft the 🍱 Lunchbox. In the meantime, I'd like to introduce the world premier of Searchcraft the 🎬Trailer!

Cool. Instacart’s recommended recipes are all AI generated. My latest rec… Rice. Ingredients: Rice.

These followed by the banger recipes: Rice with Butter and Peanut Butter on Rice Cakes.

These are not recipes. These are ingredients. The bar has dropped so low for any excuse to cut jobs.

We just added over 40 tools to the Searchcraft #MCP server. For those running self-managed integrations, you can now configure Searchcraft with tools like #Claude Desktop. Let's build! 🚀 github.com/searchcraft-...

If your content or post tells me something "isn't about [blank], it's about [blank]," then you didn't use your own voice and you're doing the bare minimum. You probably also happen to be saying this while telling me your business is different or better in some way. 🤦

Did I mention @donmackinnon.dev's way overly polished #PHP client for our search tools yet? If you write PHP, this doesn’t make your PHP project modern, but it’ll help you fake it.

JK. Just try it out and if you feel kindness in your heart, smash that ⭐.
