    the support for system languages (the rr integration "backend") is currently closed source. It's not ready yet, and it might be proprietary: it would be great if we can open source…

    True! The next major version of the format should use a more optimized format, as mentioned. However, some of the important optimizations, that we're preparing are not related so m…

    We are also planning to develop a distributed tracing platform, similar to Jaeger and OpenTelemetry, that continuously records the execution of many distributed processes (e.g. mic…

    Thank you! The Python initial prototype is not yet finished. It's easy to play with, so anyone interested can actually work on it! Currently, in the experimental tracers, Ruby is u…

    Well, we can't and we shouldn't find agreement if our base beliefs are different. I only also disagree with any vitriol against the professor. I have my doubts: even the comment yo…

    Christianity is what actually fulfilled Second Temple judaism. There was no need for such a Temple anymore, as now people themselves were becoming living temples. Lord Jesus, apost…
