I like Go. I'll never write Java again if I have the option of writing Go.
But I don't love Go's logging ecosystem. I miss log4j real bad. I especially miss package-level logging configured by a properties file.
So I built it.

Trying to buy a used TV on Facebook Marketplace, finding a bunch of posts that are pretty obviously fake accounts fencing stolen goods
Suspiciously low price, bad grammar, curiously terrible photos, account with stock photo created earlier this year

We've been doing this for over 5 years!
Many people don't realize the scope and length of Dolt's journey to a production quality Online Transaction Processing (OLTP) database. Here is a timeline of major milestones in Dolt's history.

Search results for common programming terms are so bad that our blog has been able to win a bunch of common search terms without even trying that hard
"golang stack trace" #1
"golang exec" #2
"mysql trigger example" #2
"golang colors" #3
"mysql procedure example" #5
None of the Google results for the query "python function definition syntax" leads to the official documentation.
Google is unusable.
"Learn to Code" websites are cancer.

Looking at NeonDB's series B announcement in which they claim "Postgres is the winner" of the database world, with a link to DbEngine's ranking charts
Postgres is in 4th place on that chart, behind Oracle, MySQL, and SQL Server

This use case took us a little by surprise when we first encountered it, but a bunch of game development companies are now using DoltDB to manage their game configuration data and it makes total sense
Check it out, it's a pretty interesting read
A popular Dolt use case is version controlling configuration. Modern games have a ton of configuration and game developers like Scorewarrior are adopting Dolt to clean up their configuration mess and build games faster and cheaper.

They are beating my ass on reddit over this one
It's time to stop naming your variables "ok".

You'll never meet a pettier despot than a reddit mod
The smallest amount of power to ever go to someone's head, and yet it happens constantly
Microsoft is refusing to help me make a joke about MySQL bin log replication and I'm offended
Osama bin loggin is an amazing pun and would have made an incredible blog image, I don't care what anyone says

OK so RFK Jr has chosen as his running mate Sergey Brin's second ex-wife, and divorce settlement money (and Sergey's investment in her company) will be funding his campaign
Which means that Sergey cheating on his first wife with his Glass PM might just elect RFK Jr president

This has got to be one of the wildest VP picks of all time

5 years ago I got these correctness tests running on our built-from-scratch SQL engine for the first time and we scored 70% correct
It's really inspiring how far we've come, congrats to the team
A month ago Dolt reached 100% SQL Correctness and we continue to improve Dolt's correctness. We've added a couple new metrics since then: engine test coverage and function coverage.

A bunch of you guys are sperging out about the AI music on suno.ai, but I have to put myself in the naysayer category here
This is not good music
It's "good for a computer" music, maybe
It leaves me with the same impression as AI poetry: interesting but meh

We (@DoltHub) were at GDC last week because a bunch of game developers are using Dolt to version-control their game configuration data
We got to meet several of them, which was great
If you're using Dolt like this but we didn't meet you at GDC, say hi here!
When I gave a presentation at Google Cloud Tokyo, the salarymen filed into the room in an orderly line and proceeded to fill every seat sequentially, starting with the front rows
I'd never seen anything like it, totally alien to western norms
