Been focusing tons of time on polish for lately! Fixing some bugs, improving performance, making it easier to detect issues too.

I also fixed a sneaky bug that had been hiding for a while. The race detector saw something amiss, but it turned out to be a logic issue, not the lack of a mutex. One of the reasons why I'm glad the map isn't thread-safe by default!

Lastly I removed an old test that started failing. Not sure how it ever passed, a bug was masking this scenario!

@isbm Awesome! Events are the future. I appreciate and respect the shout-out. I've seen some others copy or be inspired by my ideas, but I didn't even get an email or tweet ;)

If you'd like to have a chat about joining some of your ideas and work into the ecosystem, the door is always open!

If someone knows David, please let them know that I'm working on it, but since I didn't receive their support payment, we're running a bit behind at the moment.

An as yet to respond new contributor has been sending a bunch of AI assisted patches.

I'm assuming they've been reviewed by a human, and most are actually good quality so far. They are all simpler things in the grand scheme of the world, but happy to have them anyways.

So I've started opening up some more complex issues for someone ambitious. If the AI can do the hard ones, then I'll be very impressed.

I've got a new label named "hacker" for this:
