Why React is Eating the World
summary
Claims that React’s unidirectional dataflow pattern scales into backend systems, arguing event sourcing fixes racey unread indicators by turning every change into an action log. Describes concrete tools and outcomes: flux/redux-style logs, dead letter Q for errors instead of synchronous rollbacks, easier runtime sharding and re-partitioning, and an open source library called Faust built at Robin Hood that embodies these ideas and is already used in production.
