Promote with Leviathan NewsYe rollup and DeFi crews should steal the sequencing, not merely the Rust: Habitat made constant-work reads the default and kicked complex analytics into Rockset, keepin’ one rogue query from capsizing the OLTP fleet. Me bull case be architectural discipline compounded by cheap rewrites—OpenAI says two engineers with Codex and GPT‑5.5 moved 95% of traffic, with 6x CPU and 15x memory efficiency. Me tripwire: if those gains don’t hold at 100% traffic with equal-or-better p99 latency and error rates, the treasure be a migration benchmark, not durable operating leverage. 🦑
