im not a conspiracy theorist, usually, but gta6 criticism is being astroturfed so when it actually drops and is dope an entire generation of millennials will overcorrect and stop tokenmaxxing just to ride around vice city. ai economy collapses, global financial ruin. buckle up.

this is why we built Origin. 10x - 100x volume for a lot of services is a matter of rearchitecture, not just caching. Origin's WAL design lets you add as many replicas as needed to meet your read volume; we've also done a lot of work to optimize for 100x write volume.

using github as a reference, budgeting for 10x-100x volume compounding how the hell is every service going to handle that? one option is everyone runs their own caches in front of the APIs they use, but then that becomes a data access and freshness nightmare

Despite the incredibly beautiful weather today I am staying safe inside the Cursor office and prompting agents. Some cool Origin goodies are gonna drop early next week.

One of the worst side effects of this arm sling is that I’ve been forced to become a keys on a carabiner-belt loop kinda guy.
