Wow! I did not expect this to end up on HN. This thread was meant as an informal introduction to a few things I'm excited about regarding TigerBeetle, which was just spun out as a company last week and is where I now work.

Some of the thread is a bit hand-wavy so feel free to subscribe to the mailing list [0] for less hand-wavy posts on the subject in the future. :)
