The six systems design principles that agents don't understand

from The Databased Podcast Hosted by Convex

We believe that good design can only be learned through years of building systems at scale, so Jamie and James sat down to talk about what they've learned from their years of building infrastructure. In this episode, they cover six pieces of wisdom that seem counterintuitive at first because they go against basic things that you are taught, but reveal important nuance in systems design that will save you the next time you are drawing up architecture.
