The story digs into how he pulls it off and why the industry’s talent hunger might be enabling it.

Editor’s Note: This isn’t just about one guy gaming the system—it’s a sign of how desperate Big Tech is for skilled workers, even if it means turning a blind eye to unconventional arrangements. It also raises questions about accountability in remote work and whether companies are really paying attention to who they’re hiring.

A developer has built "Tinykv," a lightweight key-value database for Rust that stores data directly in files—think of it as a super-simple way to save and retrieve structured data without heavy dependencies.

Editor’s Note: Key-value stores are everywhere in modern apps, but they're often bloated or overkill for small projects. Tinykv offers a lean alternative for Rust developers who need something straightforward and file-based. It’s a reminder that sometimes the best tools are the ones that do just enough—no more, no less.
