I wonder if the new stdlib logger is featured enough to get rid of logrus/zerolog.

For #3 you can also use errgroup from sync/errgroup. It's a nice recent addition to the stdlib.
For #4 wrapping your errors creates pretty and logical error messages for free. It should be done in most cases.

Re:“GCP automatically LOWERED our quota, causing an incident“

1. No it would not be expensive. Writing metrics is literally free: https://cloud.google.com/stackdriver/pricing . If metrics didn't exist yet then log 1/1000 requests to control the log volume and find the pattern from the averages.
2. It isn't up to google to tell you if you are querying against the cache or the DB. It's your code. You should know. Just tick something when you use the Redis/BQ/GCS/SQL client.
This task is so easy I would assign it to a junior engineer and expect code changes done in one day!

I think it's negligible. The only metrics you lose are on rare scaledowns and they are averaged out anyways. GCP likes to keep instances idle for a long time.

You have to implement that with your own code but it isn't much more than a dict/map and a timestamp for last update.

This medium article seems silly, just add custom metrics to your app for what was fetched from cache vs DB. And label the metric by route/query/pattern. To control costs, don't tick the metric for every single request, instead accumulate locally and post to metrics API every X minutes.

Cloud is not difficult, they just charge too much per API request.

Because Adderall is 100% pure speed. A handful of Adderalls is more fun than a bag of cocaine (which is going to be more like 5% purity and adulterated with god knows what).

Re:How the Chick-fil-A Cauliflower Sandwich was created
on Friday February 10, 2023 @08:55AM (#34739605)
Without needing to resort to racist slander like you did, I can tell you why chick-fil-a rules:
- employees are friendly and work quickly
- the food tastes great and costs no more than other fast food
- the food is healthier than other fast food
When I go to a place like Mcdonalds or Burger King, the employees are typically angry, mean, rude, and work slowly. And I get a pile of slop that obviously reduces my lifespan.

Please stop normalizing daily amphetamine usage. This often prevents non-drug users from feeling as accomplished as their unnaturally enhanced peers.
