To voice support for current state - do what you're already doing, and I agree on focusing on opening up the format. Don't hesitate to charge for v2, if improvements pile up and you have affordances to do so. Will gladly pay. It&#

You can read more about it here https://www.mongodb.com/docs/manual/changeStreams/ My feeling is that database needs to be built with replication in mind from the get-go to have something like this work well.

Just to add to sibling comments, one killer feature for me is ChangeStreams[1]. It's miles ahead of what Postgres[2] offers, and it enables really interesting use cases. Some of my services built around ChangeStreams end up not doing a

OpenResty with Redis on the same system - both Lua-powered - is a god-like power. Ability to do basically control and rewrite all your ingress AND egress and have some state via Redis over UNIX sockets. What's not to love? After all, i

Also, if they're not keeping old domain (thus being able to create any (new or old) email account), they're doing a really bad job at sysadmining.

Yeah. I'm not 100% even sure what is this "GitHub" part of, but I'd be thankful anyone is helping me in any way to recover my account.

Safari for general browsing (and default) because it's the most energy efficient one. Firefox for work. The best implementation of pinned tabs. Shame it's a resource hog. Chrome for reference and research type stuff. No reason why

Go is yet to prove its stability over timespans similar to those languages you've mentioned, but it doesn't have many of noted (and similar) quirks.

All you've listed is the things you did for yourself. If that's all you did - do for the others. It might be more fulfilling than you think.

My RSI (though there are confounding variables) disappeared after about 4 months using it. Few notes: - Focusing heavy customization around the key cluster module very much helps with rare occasions I have to use laptop keyboards of mine. -
