I agree with you. Remote optimizes for one set of things, using a model that works great in a low-trust environment like open source. And you can probably get pretty good results with it. And I find Zoom calls far more fatiguing than in-

Why wouldn't it? We're talking about a mortgage on the rental property itself not on the landlord's personal residence.

I do, yes, and I ask my team to do the same. Even in software development it's very helpful. It helps the team stay in sync more, reducing the need to meet. It helps me stay in sync from yesterday me to today me as well. It avoids

There are some similarities, and there are definitely worse technologies you could choose for a message store than Kafka. It's worth calling out the difference between event-sourced and event-based. The former is necessarily the latt

100% with you that messages are a better way for microservices to receive their input. I don't see how a service could receive its input over HTTP and still retain its autonomy. A message store like Message DB can at the same time ser

In addition to what the sibling comments to this one said, Message DB solves a different problem than what queues solve. Message DB is a good fit in a microservice-based architecture, and the "micro" in "microservice" c

Good question. Consumers poll for updates. One of the stored functions in Message DB is designed for this very query. Polling sounds very crude, but for the systems Message DB is designed for, it's a virtue. No back pressure problem

Message DB happens to be implemented using a RDBMS, but the streams in it end up being very clear partition points. Some thought would be required to move data to a different database, but an event-sourced model isn't the same as coup

Imagine the beauty of it! Before making an in-app purchase, you'd get to fill out as much paper work as you do for a mortgage. Disclosures, acknowledgement. We could make Candy Crush as exciting as opening a bank account!
