    This is over engineered. With dynamodb you can just do an if_not_exists conditional write on the primary key to enforce uniqueness and you just use a key of sufficient entropy that collisions are rare. You don’t need to do a check-then-write. Just spread that over N servers with

    Its 2014. You cant decide between grunt and gulp. A JavaScript library you depend on has yet another breaking change, so you’re thinking of jumping to that other shiny new framework. You deploy your site and get a runtime error because you accidentally passed a string to the

    Common Lisp implies the existence of Uncommon, Rare, Epic and Legendary Lisps. And vendor trash Lisp too I guess!
