I registered on their platform API, and immediately it asked for a selfie inage to verify Im a human. Thanks, but there is definately no chance I gave them my selfie to use their model.

If you look back in your career, you will find out that most of time you dont write code, you read code. You need to travel back and forth of the logic to understand it, write some piece of code, run it then read it again to understand why a wierd logic happen.
You only feel powerful when you boostrap a project because you wirte a lots of skeleton code or init core logic.
Nowaday we dont have chance to even write those kind of code I miss writing code too.

I use AI to summarize a book because I need to use it asap for my professional works. But I do reading because I enjoy learning process, the knowledge is a bonus, not the goal

In the AI era, I often deal with the situation that I ask AI for a python script then need to setup an environment to run it. It's frustrated because I only need to run it once but need to deal with 15-30mins setup.
That why I developed a small helper program that allow me execute any python script. It's not perfect but it has been serve my needs very well for months.
If you are Go developer, let's install it with command
go install github.com/kanthorlabs/runit/cmd/runit@latest
Otherwise you can download the binary and use it

Greate article! I have learned about block/page long time ago when I needed to debug performance issue but not as deep as this article. Will share it with my teammate and its funny to see their emotional face :D

The funny story behind KanthorQ is that it stemmed from a challenge I faced with another project: an open-source webhook gateway (https://github.com/kanthorlabs/kanthor). After completing that project and starting some benchmarks, I realized I was dealing with issues I had never encountered before.
When something went wrong, I had to scan through a list of events to identify the failed ones. However, doing that with traditional message brokers like NATS.io or RabbitMQ was challenging. I needed an additional layer to store the events and analyze the data. As a result, a simple system required two high-availability components to function properly.
Additionally, backup and restoration were not straightforward with traditional message brokers like NATS.io or RabbitMQ. It's difficult to back up and restore these systems—or at least, I couldn't find a reliable way to do it.
That's why I developed KanthorQ. Now, I have a message broker where data is stored in a database, making it easy to browse, analyze, back up, and restore.

I agree that we are overthinking about infrastructure. Boring stack like traditional RDMS, single server with regular backup, few bash script for deployment is fine for normal startup that targets to non-tech customer. They will serve you well at least one or two years, then you will know what should be improve.
One of the big surprise is database like PostgreSQL can handle like 100tps very well with cheap hardware cost. That mean you can handle up to 86 millions transaction per day.

I'm using KSUID (https://sotergreco.com/why-choose-ulids-over-traditional-uui...) for a while and totally happen with it
One tiny note about using sortable id is you should not expose it to public use without authentication because it can be scan easily

Database is the most interesting topic that I could not stop curious about it. I used to hosted a techtalk for my teammate about how to write a db with LSM tree ans SSTable but I could not go so far as your article
Sent it to my teammate and hope they can use your article as a note to explore more topics about the database
Thanks for amazing article

Absolutely Posgtres!!! Yesterday I had to migrate from postgres to mysql and I found some disadvantage things about mysql in my use case
There is no returning for insert/update/delete what forces me do a second query to get new data. Why dont just return what I have updated? Because it is some thing like: UPDATE wallets SET balance = balance + 1
I have to give up json function because its hard to work with it on mysql. Have to do the aggregation in my code instead
No uuid v4 support by default
