We're now investigating moving to Kubernetes where we will have more control over our destiny. Thankfully a couple people on the team have experience with this.

Something like this never happened with Fargate in the years my previous team had used that.

I've dabbled with the idea of creating some real implementation of this. I most recently put together an @Midnight / After Midnight no-code game for a friend's bachelor party. The buzz-in mechanics and score-keeping are somewhat similar. Maybe you could repurpose your core logic for several different game show themes?

Regardless of what you do, make sure there is a vesting schedule in place (e.g. a 4 year vest + 1 year cliff).

For the "capture changes in an audit table" section, I've had good experiences at a previous company with the Temporal Tables pattern. Unlike other major RDBMS vendors, it's not built into Postgres itself, but there's a simple pattern [1] you can leverage with a SQL function.

This allows you to see a table's state as of a specific point in time. Some sample use cases:

- "What was this user's configuration on Aug 12?"

- "How many records were unprocessed at 11:55pm last night?"

- "Show me the diff on feature flags between now and a week ago"

spoiler: Of the 6 cars they tested, Tesla Model Y had the best performance in terms of miles per kWh and total range. But it still clocked in at only 81% of claimed range.

Just looked it up: $0.45/kWh the last 4 times at Tesla Superchargers in California.

I primarily coded in Python for 4 years. Then I founded a company that didn't need as much data science and my primary language switched to JavaScript (2 years) then TypeScript (4 years). Overall, I really like TypeScript. But I do absolutely miss being able to cmd + click into a function/class from an open source package and see the actual implementation and not just a type definition. This is probably the biggest day-to-day frustration I have with TS compared to JS and Python.

I like your game for what it is, but anchoring it to Scrabble confused me a bit when I first played. It was missing a couple of keys aspects for me:

1) Bingo bonus (+50 for using all of your tiles)

2) Optimizing your tileset so that future turns have a better chance for a bingo.

Also, minor nit: the colors for the letter multipliers (purple and red) in your game also confused me because in Scrabble the red x3 is a word multiplier and not a letter multiplier. You could consider using light blue and dark blue if you want to align to the traditional game.

Over the years, I've made it more complex. I added a simple menu system using text-to-speech and accepting the DTMF tones for the selection. This way I could tell people to enter a secret PIN and they could provision themselves access to my lobby. If they didn't know the secret PIN, there was an option to have it patch through to my phone so I could screen the guest using normal voice and I could manually press 9 on my cell phone.

It also has an SMS interface where I can select different modes and hours of operations. So when I host a poker night, I'd txt my bot "poker" and it would it update the menu system to be Poker themed so that when guests were at the callbox they'd be greeted with poker puns. When my friend comes to visit from Austin, I'd txt "StarCraft" and he'd get to hear some dumb SC2 puns. I have 20+ different modes now for various occasions over the years. Now when people visit they get their phones out and record the greeting half-expecting something that they would want to remember or share on social media.

Sadly, my building just replaced their callbox with a newer model that does not accept secondary input. So once the call is connected to Twilio, if the user touches any button on the callbox (e.g. to enter a secret PIN), it will disconnect the call. I suppose it's now time to use some voice-to-text options to bring back the interactivity, but I suspect the lag would make the experience more frustrating than fun.

So you could effectively:

1) Create a snapshot of your production DB -> DB_2A

2) Then create a snapshot of that snapshot -> DB_2B

3) Now you have two copies of the exact same database. Run your query/workload/migration on DB_2B.

4) Run some metadata queries against DB_2A and DB_2B and compare the results.

5) If your metadata queries are inline with expectations, delete the snapshots. If not, leave them around for a bit for manual inspection.
