Tacet

Field notes on software that stays out of the way.

About

Tacet is a small notebook about building software that is fast, predictable and easy to operate — the kind you forget is there until you need it.

Posts are short and practical: latency, failure handling, data storage, tooling. New ones appear when there is something worth writing down.

The name comes from music notation, where tacet tells a player to stay silent for a passage. Good infrastructure has the same job.
