In Málaga today at @Lambda_World giving a live demo of @eezoframework Already new additions to the framework since Scala Days 2 weeks ago!

I don't think I've really shared this, but I built fi-track.com a while ago. It's a #FinancialFreedom / #FIRE calculator that does the usual 4% stuff, but also runs Monte Carlo simulations and has a JSON export/import feature. Shameless ad for @SkaldMaps, though. 🧵

Some Scala developers have moved to Rust 🦀, and there are plenty of articles and videos about this transition. But this one is the opposite - a Rust developer moved to Scala! 👇

Columnar on disk, in @ApacheDataFusio, @ApacheSpark too - except in the middle, where row-format quietly sneak-in 😉 SIMD, Arrow IPC, mmap'd zero-copy, all safe with no runtime watching. Inside Arrow's buffers, the borrow checker is lethal on bugs JVM/Python GC around🗑️ And of-course how to scaffold data-pipelines that stay in above lane! Next week, speaking in @JOTBConf / @Lambda_World

Smart people proved a CEO can think clearly and still fire everyone. Why? The company keeps all the money saved, but the cost of lost customers is shared with everybody else. So don't tax the thoughts. Tax the automation. #AILayoffTrap

Caught up with @jonhoo at EuroRust! 🦀 • Rust's static checks matter more than ever • Safety types could let Rust verify unsafe blocks at compile time • LLMs are great first-pass reviewers, not final approvers #rustlang #eurorust #interview

If you're a curious #Scala dev and want to see a demo of #EEZO, here is the video of our talk at @scaladays. We created and deployed a web app in the cloud (on Fly . io) from scratch in less than 30 minutes 💨 youtube.com/watch?v=IOsSpHu3…

Day 2 at #EuroRust, with the people behind RustRover 🦀 We’ve got the booth, the crew, cool merch and plenty of Rust to talk about. Come find us!

This week at @scaladays, we presented our new framework, called eezo 🐲. In #EEZO, the models are case classes, and through #Scala 3 derivation machinery, you can easily get CRUD routes over HTTP and persistence in a Postgres table. The example below mounts 7 routes in a Jetty HTTP server and creates the `book` table. Web development made eezy again ♥️ Check out our site and say 👋: eezo.io

My favorite talk from Scala Days 2026 was about baking refinement types right into the compiler. Unlike libraries like Iron or Refined, it adds a built-in solver that verifies logic and math across multiple variables at compile time with zero runtime cost. Moving from simple checks to full verification is how Scala's type system should evolve to constrain LLMs - AI code won't compile unless the math holds up.
