ooh ive been following their work[1], they published an interesting paper about transactions accross different data stores[2]

i wonder how it works with long running functions, does it lock the db?

makes me wonder if "users don't care about privacy" is more true than i thought

congrats to the team! a little sad at the shutdown however, one of the few privacy focused products with good design and attention to detail

thanks! but yea as some people mentioned, i need to sort/filter multiple items, (ie the first node needs wood,coal,stone to go left and the metals to go right), and the splitters can only filter 1 item.

thanks for the notes! def want to see if I can implement self-balancing next - was thinking the bots would come in handy here? not sure if its possible to have them dynamically build blueprints
