A .AI founder complains about slow DAG queries while using MongoDB (a document database) for graph operations. Won't read docs. Deploys in-memory graph database on 512MB RAM. Blames software when it crashes. Trusts LLM that hallucinates deprecated versions. Asks if 1M context window fixes architecture. This is Vibe Reporting--and it's killing open source.
Captain Seuros discovers that small Ruby modernization gains compound exponentially - from 0.58% improvements in state_machines to fleet-wide performance that challenges Rust battleships. The mathematics of incremental engineering and strategic patience.
After years of comfortable cruising through the Ruby nebula, I discovered something that changed everything. This is the story of why a die-hard Rubyist decided to learn Go—and what I found on the other side.
When the backend developer said "screw it, let's just give the frontend direct database access through GraphQL," the Atlas Monkey fleet faced its worst performance disaster yet. Ships crashed from N+1 query storms, security breaches exposed critical data, and what seemed like developer convenience became a maintenance nightmare. Captain Seuros investigates why GraphQL often creates more problems than it solves.
When the Atlas Monkey encounters a massive cache invalidation event threatening reality itself, the crew must perform the galaxy's most dangerous database migration to save a trapped vessel and prevent a cascade failure across three sectors.
