People act like I have two heads when I start drilling down on the expected read vs write rate on the application. Because when there are orders of magnitude difference between the two it shifts when you make expensive calculations. Either on the infrequent write or lazily on the infrequent read.

And if I’m honest I kind of wish I had two heads in this situation so I could bite them all. Fucking amateur hour.
