I'm sure rv is great, but am I the only one who needs one such tool not only for Ruby, but also Python, JavaScript, and Java, at least, and finds it weird to run 4+ of those? I put…

The only thing I know about “good system design” is that it doesn’t exist in the abstract. Asking whether an architecture is good or bad is the wrong question. The real question is…

For all the Rubik's Cube enthusiasts here: here's a two-dimensional one in JavaScript - https://www.huehnken.de/games/circles/ Also a solution looking for a problem, maybe.

Reg. the "technical" question: Kafka or any log-based message broker (or any message queue) would not prevent you from that. Any service can publish/send and/or subscribe/receive. …
