Came here to share a related fact :)
replyThis solution with WAL and compact resembled the database internals as taught by Martin Kleppmann.
I asked Claude about this observation, and learned that the author (Vicent Martí) wasn't only core Github developer but also worked on Vitess from PlanetScale.
So no surprise these two contexts resulted in the design of Continuity as it is.
https://vitess.io/ - Vitess is a database clustering system for horizontal scaling of MySQL.
Is this enough to counteract the reputation of his new boss, Elon Musk?
reply<edit>: there is lots of demand for a GitHub alternative due to poor uptime, poorly implemented components (CI), and Microsoft stewardship. Switching, especially at this early stage requires a huge component of trust.
Cursor isn't covering itself in glory regardless. The flagship app is getting enshittified at a surprising clip. It constantly pops up and interrupts your work pushing new features, changes your model to whatever the latest Grok is without prompting, has this mystery meat UI that is constantly changing, pushes cloud agents in ways that are definitely designed to trick you. We're actively looking at alternatives, I wouldn't touch anything this company produces from here on out.

replyThere's a reason you say that with a throwaway account. Even you know it's shameful.
replyJust like with climate change, the problems Elon creates don’t go away just because people are reminded of them.
replyHe still pushes his agenda, he still has lots of followers who believe his nonsense
An agenda to improve the future for humanity? What do you think his agenda is?
replyWell, there's going to be a lot more of it. You can't be an outright ultra-right wing racist and expect that it doesn't cause brand damage. It never made business sense for Musk to act the way he does, but he couldn't help himself. Do not expect people to just be ok with it.
