Has anyone seen this issue with AWS RDS Aurora MYSQL?
Under heavy loads, the database returns an incorrect response (the response was supposed to be delivered to a different connection for a distinct query)—mismatched responses to requests…
I migrated a client application from a single server to the Digital Ocean App platform, and it was straightforward. Nice to see more competition in this space #DevOps #webdev
Happy to be in Brighton today for #brightonruby come say hi 👋🏽
Anyone used GoodJob in place of Sidekiq? Any thoughts?

I really wanted to like fly.io, but there have been too many stability issues for us to recommend it 😪
