    A stateless pattern I use to batch telemetry at the edge while driving Cloudflare write costs to zero.

    Can you explain the pricing here?

    Cool pattern. Critics will say “falsehoods programmers believe about time” but it’s a cloud service, any time oddity that would break this would also break a lot more important stuff, so it’s fine.

    Ugly code though.

      // env
      QUEUES = [EVEN_QUEUE, ODD_QUEUE]
    
      // producers
      env.QUEUES[hour % 2].send …
    
      // consumer
      env.QUEUES[1 + hour % 2]

    danhite 1 hours

    > env.QUEUES[1 + hour % 2]

    // results in index 1 or 2 as js has precedence for */% over +-

    So something like the following, for your desired visual succinctness? ...

    env.QUEUES[hour % 2 ^ 1]

    // results in desired js index 0 or 1

    I wonder if any of you using AI code assistance regularly might tell an old hack like me if your code review tools would have caught such a bug?
