What's interesting to me about the videos vs. the blog posts (I like both) is that only the video shows me the way you work. I'd love to see a video where you recreate finding a bug, how you worked to go from issue to repro to fix, just to see more of how you work.

Yes, this is definitely the power of the video, to explain the same in a blog post would be like a chapter, showing in this case is simpler. I'll consider doing bug hunting recording the whole session, and then editing accordingly (because it takes hours or days... for the interesting bugs).

The use of goto in Redis. 4. Redis protocol parsing and zero-copying of objects. 5. The odd Redis persistence m…

I've always loved your LOAD81 project and would encourage you to return to it and add some new features - so maybe how you made it, what it can be used for, how you can extend it by adding functionality .. ?
