You’re right. I should have examined more carefully.

“Isn’t it more surprising if something succeeds than if it fails?” — a parable for the whole business of software engineering.

I was trying to figure out why the New Yorker would care about data streams

I saw the domain name and thought it was some journalist using Kafka as a pseudonym, to comment on current world events.

I was feeling lucky... either way
