Or..? A golden era for people who want to think of new things and test out their ideas quickly by having AI code it up.

This is made possible because Elastic gained a write-ahead log that actually syncs to disk after each write, like Postgres.

I came to a similar conclusion. What about measuring enjoyment? Turns out people enjoy meetings more than work!

I'm surprised that we're circling back to banning things being the answer, when we (the Internet) know that doesn't work long-term. It seems nice at face value, so it appeases ever…

I thought PostgreSQL did, but now that I check the docs, you are correct, the default `commit_delay` is zero. That would be worth increasing a little if you can afford the latency.…
