I don't know what your background is, but I'm really encouraged by the fact that I've worked my whole career without having to deal with people that behave like you.
> 1) scaling is easy . . . oh casandra. Where you can't have C and don't care about P.
This isn't about teaching me the CAP theorem. I know the CAP theorem. I know the tradeoffs. I've built and managed systems that handle hundreds of billions of events a day, writing millions of writes a second into a thousand cassandra nodes. You can have C, if you want it - you dont get transactions with rollbacks, but that doesn't mean you dont have consistency.
> 2) Let me tell you about banks. I used to work for banks. Banks do not use systems that are eventually consistent

I see, lame troll or wholly clueless. Guess I'm done.
