I agree. If you can reliably recover from failures by migrating instead of restoring from checkpoints, then the need to checkpoint frequently becomes far less important and reduces the overhead of taking checkpoints. Similarly, a lot of users are experimenting with asynchronous checkpoints to reduce the blocking penalty, but there are big tradeoffs there with DRAM usage. So being able to take checkpoints far less frequently gives you more flexibility on the type of checkpointing you use as well.

Take a look at Exploiting a Natural Network Effect for Scalable, Fine-grained Clock Synchronization - https://www.usenix.org/conference/nsdi18/presentation/geng (commercial version by the same authors - clockwork.io).

What's amazing to me is that without reading (watching?) too much into it, and me not being a seasoned South Park viewer, this could easily pass as a real episode.

Essentially NY City is making short term rentals (rentals < 30 days) illegal for most renters. The only exception is a room without a lock, for up to 2 people, in a residence that has shared living space and is occupied by the owner.

Unfortunately it's more restrictive than just owner-occupied units. It's essentially an unlocked room (for up to 2 people) in someone's house/apt that includes shared living spaces.

For example, there are many multi-family houses where a family lives upstairs but can't rent out the downstairs apt.

Worth a read if you've ever used Airbnb for a short term stay in NYC (or if you're an Airbnb host). The City of NY is about to start enforcing a ban on short term rentals on Airbnb, VRBO, etc.

Does anyone have a simple explanation of how it structures the log data?

Gavin from Zebrium here. We've done some interesting things with GPT-3 - we use it to produce plain language summaries of log events that describe the root cause of a problem. See - https://www.zebrium.com/blog/using-gpt-3-with-zebrium-for-pl... and https://www.zebrium.com/blog/real-world-examples-of-gpt-3-pl...

This is really cool. You've done a tremendous job in making this very usable (I love your yellow sticky note instructions).
