Been a while, but I wrote an article for one of my clients on building efficient GraphQL resolvers based on a chunk of rebuilding we just did. Was fun

25 year old me is looking in horror as I read explain output and seem to understand what is going on.

Happily, postgres is approachable and pretty tolerant these days, and even a poor, ignorant distributed application engineer like me can figure out what's going on with queries and do some voodoo to make things fast.

Agreed, one big advantage of Event Sourced systems in a distributed environment make it vastly easier to bootstrap a new service... and to recover when there's failures

After several years of absence from social media, blogging, conferences and user groups, I've got a fair few things back in the pipeline over the net 6 months. App design, event systems, Kubernetes, Kafka, NodeJS, JVM, Groovy and some soldering.
Looking forward to it!

Hey @SamsungMobile The latest security patch (October 18) has broken bluetooth/ BLE.
Stuff won't connect in the background any more. As a T1 diabetic, I was using my phone to monitor my blood sugar, guess what I can't do any more?
