Feels strange to have posted exactly the same thing and gotten exactly zero traction.

Really glad this event exists. I didn't know about it ahead of time, so some amount of Marketing sounds sensible.

My favorite talk (although I haven't gotten through them all yet) was Alex Miller's Enough with all the Raft https://www.hytradboi.com/2025/2016d6c4-b08d-40b3-af2f-67926...

I wonder how TigerBeetle fits in this mental framework for OLTP replication.

TigerBeetle uses VSR, which is basically a variant of MultiPaxos/Raft.

There were some great talks. The chat was satisfying. I like Zulip and have some experience with it so it was easy to navigate for me. It does take some getting used to though; a tips or FAQ would probably help a lot of folks.

The concept and branding are great.

If another one ends up happening I’d do it again.

Worth mentioning that all the talks are published at https://www.hytradboi.com/2025/#program.

the reason I didn't attend / pay this time btw was because last time the talks were more about the "user-end of databases" and I mostly work in product and design; this time it was about more low-level stuff which is out of my scope. It's still cool stuff! But just outside of my focus / realm

> but now stripe supports pay-what-you-want directly (the docs say that they don't, but the docs are wrong)

Does anyone have links / suggestions on how to set this up?
