Hi, engineer on the project here! That's an old version of the code that turned out to be too slow for the volume of records we need to process. The current version, which you see in the images from the article, is written in Golang.

You’re doing incredible work. Keep it up!

(Also use consts so you don’t make typos - or so your typos are at least consistent :)

Can you go into that a little more - the switch to Golang and the old version being too slow?
