[Damian Janowski @djanowski]

I can’t believe it’s been TWELVE years since @soveran and I committed the skeleton for the Redis website. It stood mostly unchanged until earlier this year. Thank you @antirez for writing such a beautiful piece of software and for letting us get involved <3

We did this at low traffic sites too, even having "nights" at our disposal. Correctness is so nice – each code deploy happens calmly, no moving parts to coordinate ("hey okay code deploy now run the migration, quickly!!1")

[Mike Coutermarsh @mscccc]

How high traffic sites rename a db column without downtime.

1. Add new column
2. Double write to old/new column
3. Backfill new column
4. Switch reads/writes 100% to new column
5. Delete the old column

Each step is a code deploy

Thoughts on emoji-only commit messages?

Are people still using Yarn over stock npm?

@AshleeMBoyer Hi! Thought you might find this interesting https://t.co/oLoSdWt3g1

@vinitkme You can still use Git to manage Homebrew as a project, just not as the distribution mechanism to users. Is that what you mean?

[Damian Janowski @djanowski]

In retrospect, building Homebrew on top of Git was a terrible idea, right?

[Damian Janowski @djanowski]

@luca3m rsync, exactly!

[Damian Janowski @djanowski]

@vinitkme Just download a gzipped tarball with all the recipes on `brew update`?
