We have the good fortune of not having to be super secretive about our tech. We _want_ to talk about this project as we go along and share what we learn. We've already got more interesting stuff to talk about, and it'd be a lot less interesting, I think, without this context for the overall project.

As mentioned in the post, a small piece of our GraphQL schema is already in Go running in production. This blog post isn't just "we're thinking of doing this thing". It's "we've already done a bunch of research, thinking, _and_ built some of it."

Just because you can do something doesn't mean you should have done it. And sometimes that's only found out in hindsight.

Indeed, that's true. I just think we have more to gain by talking about what we're doing and seeing what the community thinks about some of our approaches rather than keeping it all private for the next year.
