    It's amazing how many times you can say "wait, what?" in a row while trying to understand this line of code: https://github.com/mongodb/mongo-java-driver/blob/master/src/main/com/mongodb/ConnectionStatus.java#L213 …

        @avibryant Wow. I had to rewrite it to understand it. if (!_ok && Math.random() <= 0.1) { return res; }. It’s also in dire need of a comment

        @JorgeO luckily, I wasn't actually working with this code. Yet. (But what is the best mongo+scala driver? Wish there were mongo-finagle.)

        @avibryant We use Rogue (http://github.com/foursquare/rogue …) on top of mongo-java-driver. At some point we'll have to break down & write mongo-finagle.

        @avibryant: stochastic errors are a well-understood phenomenon in biology; this is obviously some bold, next-level interdisciplinary work

        Replying to @sorendebois

        @sorendebois as far as we can deduce it was meant to reduce logging volume to 10%, but got refactored to return "ok" randomly.
