- alexbouchard 5y agoThat's right. In the context of pushed events, you have very little margin for error. It's definitely "solvable," but a bit part of the problem is that for most tech teams, it's not their bread and butter. Handling webhooks reliably is just overhead and work they aren't putting into their actual product. So you end up with a lot of not-so-reliable implementations.
