Inside you there are two wolves. One is active, the other one is on hot standby and becomes active if the first one fails or is taken down for maintenance. Add more wolves as necessary for increased redundancy load balancing. A quorum badger can be added for environments with multiple active wolves.
Looking forward to Data Council this week! HMU if you're around and want to catch up.

Last year we encountered a strange glitch in one of our surveys…the word “yes” was being replaced with the word “forks” in response options. Read on to learn how we unraveled what was causing it, how we ensured it didn’t impact the data quality, and what to do if it happens to you!

Can't stop giggling at this sample question used to test an AI reasoning model in a paper I'm reading
The pandemic started five years ago, which means it's just about time for Cisco to announce big product enhancements to WebEx to help cope with the social distancing.
In the last few days, I'm finding myself fighting memories in Windsurf a lot more often. Cascade will often get hung up on irrelevant/outdated info in memories and ignore/garble specific instructions. It started happening right after I installed the Wave 4 updates. Anybody else seeing this?

OMG, Windsurf/Claude is amazing at taking the pain out of configuring Github actions.
Ugh. For reasons I cannot fathom, I woke up with Jack Black/Bowser's "Peaches" song stuck in my head. Thanks, Obama.

Is there a name for pre-refactor "I'm not sure yet how bad it's going to be" anxiety?
Nothing says "this software isn't for me" quite like having to give anything a "campaign name." If I'm forced to give campaign names in a tool I always call it "winter land war in Asia"
