I want to live in a world where booting a machine doesn't cause config propagation to break #fail consensus algorithms

The only things that are truly unique in a relational DB are auto inc pks. Even uniques such as username may be duplicated across time.

I feel dirty doing pointer dereferences in #golang

One of the tools I've learned when writing #golang is how to coalesce errors behind an API boundary. Makes for cleaner code.
