A few weeks ago, Jack posted a thread about how he was going to fix Twitter. I made an off-handed comment - which he saw and responded to. This post is about that.

Every time I write a post, I go down a rabbit hole of links. Some of my favorite ones from this time around: This thread of things that went very wrong with Mongo. https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/3dvzsl/why_you_should_never_ever_ever_use_mongodb/ …pic.twitter.com/tu1Xln9A83

It was nuts, right? I wonder if all of that died down because Mongo stabilized or just no one uses it anymore :troll_face:

I've heard idle chitchat that the mongo craze may have hit the NY tech corridor a bit harder than SF.... I think it died down once the horror stories started.... getting webscale =D

I wonder why that is! Was Mongo of the NY tech scene?

A few years back I briefly set up a NAS with mongo for all my data archiving thinking it would organize things better before I went right back to json-lines and hdf. It was a dark time. A lot of bit-lives were lost.
