summary

Live on-stage debate builds a tiny voting app prototype and argues concrete tradeoffs: an event stream feeding a vote processor and aggregator vs a single monolith, Ruby prototype then Rust consideration, and REST endpoints vs a single GraphQL gateway. Editors, pairing, remote work and trunk vs branches get data points too, with network hiccups during the livestream and QR voting driving outcomes — audience ends up favoring tabs, microservices, and soloing in the quick polls.
