@DanEnglishby Find a mentor or a software engineer hero that you want to be like. Just because you’re self taught don’t feel like you’re alone or that you shouldn’t reach out for help.
@mjovanovictech We have this same setup at work. How do you deal with the cache stampede problem? This is where you have high load and all of your clients cache expires at the same time. I personally implemented the FusionCache package and it was the perfect package for handling this problem.
Those who oppose voter ID are doing so to *prevent* voter suppression.
Southern states have a long history of using various voting requirements to suppress votes from ethnic minorities and low income populations. ID requirements would do just that: 16% of White Americans lack a valid license compared to 27% of Latinos and 37% for African Americans.
If you really think IDs would reduce voter fraud (which is currently extremely low and doesn't need reduction), then you should push for the establishment of a free and easy to get *national* ID card (history shows that many states can't be trusted with that).
There have been various proposals along those lines in Congress, but they all encountered opposition from Republicans.
Democrats weren't too enthusiastic either because it would give yet another reason for wingnuts to scream "tyranny!"

Red States have no motivation to fix the problem because it touches populations that primarily vote Democrat.

it begins.
