Kafka isn't that advanced. change my mind.

but first, let me share my reasoning - i don't think enough people have thought about this...

People were putting logs in streams well before 1776

Why didn't Kafka get any brownie points??

Because brownies are made in batch!

Why was the backend JavaScript developer so quiet?

Because they didn't Node how to Express themselves!
July 9, 2025 at 2:45 PM
good morning to all the tech recruiters that know JavaScript and Java aren't the same thing

and to all the engineers that have survived the other ones

A DevOps engineer walks into a bar...

Orders a drink. Orders 100 drinks. Orders 0 drinks. Orders -1 drinks.

Pours them out. keeps only the containers. pays in cache. hikes up mountain. throws them in the cloud
