I see incidents like this almost every day while biking on Valencia - if only we had a police station close by @SFPDMission 👀
Tonight, a car was blocking the bike lane on Valencia and ~17th. I knocked on their window as I was passing by asking them to move - instead, I get a driver and her passengers cussing me out, racing ahead of my bike, stopping in the middle of the street and trying to door me.

Most teams do not know how to manage a @nodejs application at scale regarding memory. Here is a simple fact: V8 GC will consume all memory that it has available. Configure a memory limit and do not recycle your instance if it hits 80% of memory usage - it's totally normal.
