Inside you there are two wolves. One is active, the other one is on hot standby and becomes active if the first one fails or is taken down for maintenance. Add more wolves as necessary for increased redundancy load balancing. A quorum badger can be added for environments with multiple active wolves.

Unforgivable that Home Depot sells garden gnomes but does not have a dedicated section called Gnome Depot.

Last year we encountered a strange glitch in one of our surveys…the word “yes” was being replaced with the word “forks” in response options. Read on to learn how we unraveled what was causing it, how we ensured it didn’t impact the data quality, and what to do if it happens to you!
How a glitch in an online survey replaced the word ‘yes’ with ‘forks’
Dating back to at least early 2023, a bizarre and alarming technical glitch started popping up in some organizations’ online surveys and forms.

In the last few days, I'm finding myself fighting memories in Windsurf a lot more often.
Cascade will often get hung up on irrelevant/outdated info in memories and ignore/garble specific instructions.
It started happening right after I installed the Wave 4 updates.
Anybody else seeing this?
