offtopic, but I'm in the middle of trying to convince my small team to pick up typescript for a new significant node backend for our company. It seems like a no-brainer from my perspective. Compilation is fast, we would use `strict`

I think others have it right, with what we know EM is the way to go. But I keep thinking about dark matter and dark energy and how we don’t understand them. It wasn’t really that long ago that we didn’t understand EM either. Finding radio w

In my experience it’s relatively rare that you need them. I think of them as the for-each of joins. It evaluates row by row, not a single time. Another analogy would be a correlated subquery.

This problem is one of my biggest needs with postgres, although its certainly not limited to pg. listen/notify is fragile - you either have a single point of failure or you run multiple workers and have to deal with de-duping. Logical
