My opinions are my own
@jaz.bsky.social try to read from mutation fragments if your release supports it. If its a clock skew, retries, you should observe both records along with their timestamps - from there you can determine the source of it.

Yeah -- and tell you what, my modest Switch HW gives me more fun than the super heating PS5. Very high expectations for Nintendo's nextgen

WDYM by dropping? Is it crashing or gossip flapping?

If a crash, replicas take sometime to find it out, plus in-flight reqs will timeout.

If flapping, it could be an overwhelmed node/shard. Check the foreground/background queues in the detailed dashboard.

Hey there @blenon-raqnon.bsky.social !

Yes, currently the Operator doesn’t support resizing PVCs :-( the reason is because we highly recommend local SSDs for better performance

This doesn’t mean we won’t ever support resizing PVCs but you’ve hit a known limitation atm

Hope it addresses your qs

Well I wouldn't be so confident. Thingy about Threads is that the integration with Instagram makes its numbers veeery misleading. They didn't really "got a bazillion new users", users were always there ...

Playing with OSS code is all about a learning journey and, community contribution. If you are curious on how this works, I just implemented a naive way to deserialize an Alternator serialized map via the Cassandra (CQL) binary protocol! 👇
