@SusanPotter I could give you a tour of what it's like at SFDC now if you want to refresh your memory
@SusanPotter It does not provide "fast feedback", heh
@SusanPotter I meant our release vehicle (that tracks configuration changes) and has some integration tests for the whole kafka stack + smoke tests.
But it's also fantastically expensive and if you can avoid doing it, do that instead.
@SusanPotter ah.. yeah probably one reason we have a fantastically large amount of testing before you're even allowed to merge things
@SusanPotter Kinda curious how it was fragile for you, running one of the largest footprints in the world and we're not experiencing that
@SusanPotter Kafka's not always the best at this kind of thing because of the weirdness around transactions, lack of DLQ, resubmitting messages, etc.. Things you get with a real message queue.
@metcalfc @ripienaar inexpensive source of gelatin, which is used to make live yeast settle at the bottom of the cask?
@ripienaar fun fact, I can't drink certain kinds of wine because classically they use shellfish as part of the clarifying process. Learning that explained some of the epic hangovers I'd get after a literal glass of wine.
