The Feature Flag Trap: Why Your Kill Switch Can Kill You
Feature flags start as a safety mechanism and end as an invisible second codebase. Here's the compound-interest problem nobody warned you about — and a practical way to think about flag debt before it starts causing bugs you can't explain.
Kafka vs. Pub/Sub vs. SQS: Pick the Right Event Bus
Most event bus comparisons benchmark throughput and miss the one dimension that forces a re-platform: whether the broker keeps a replayable log or destroys messages on ack. Here's how Kafka, Google Pub/Sub, and AWS SQS actually differ when a second downstream service needs the same stream.
