Jinbase – Multi-model transactional embedded database

Jinbase – Multi-model transactional embedded database

Hi Dev ! I'm Alex, a tech enthusiast. I'm excited to show you Jinbase, my multi-model transactional embedded database. Almost a year ago, I introduced Paradict, my take on multi-format streaming serialization. Given its readability, the Paradict text format appears de facto as an interesting data format for config files. But using Paradict to manage config files would end up cluttering its programming interface and making it confusing for users who still have choices of alternative libraries (TOML, INI File, etc.) dedicated to config files. So I used Paradict as a dependency for KvF (Key-value file format), a new project…

Bridging CLI and Note-Taking

Bridging CLI and Note-Taking

As developers, we spend countless hours in the terminal. It's our primary interface for everything from git operations to server management. But what happens when you need to quickly jot down a thought or make a note while deep in a coding session? For me, this meant an annoying context switch. I use Logseq as my primary note-taking and knowledge management system, but every time I needed to make a quick note, I had to: Take my hands off the keyboard Reach for the mouse Switch windows to Logseq Navigate to today's journal Make my note Switch back to the…

Burnout to Breakthrough: Rediscovering My Passion in Tech and Writing

Burnout to Breakthrough: Rediscovering My Passion in Tech and Writing

The past few months have been challenging. Every task felt daunting. Thinking about them alone drains my body and mind. I kept wondering, what was wrong with me? Am I sick? but got no answers. I felt exhausted mentally, emotionally, and physically. The tasks I used to sweep through felt like roadblocks. Am I getting depressed? I always asked myself. I was supposedly okay. I kept going, and sooner than I expected, I was caught up in the dark web of the non-medical condition that grazes the most passionate individuals; burnout. Burnout consumed me because I didn’t spot the signs…
