TaskTiger only processes one

Generally yes, though it also supports "batching" tasks where tasks are `.delay`'d normally but the task is given batches of N sets of args at a time and the task's code has to understand batching logic.

:+1: I'd definitely believe the task handling code is slower than celery. Honestly I haven't personally done too much optimization work on it (though perhaps previous maintainers have, I'm not sure). Performance of TaskTiger itself hasn't really been problematic at all for us in production with hundreds of workers. Usually it's been external things (like databases, third party API's, etc) that impact our task throughput the most. Or wanting to shift the architecture entirely to avoid using memory-bound Redis as a queue with an overflow risk.

Regular air duster cans work just as well and are significantly less expensive than their refill cannisters.

After a few times the cats avoid the sprayer, so you don't churn through them as fast as you'd think.

quitting (and deleting!) reddit, twitter, facebook, instagram, and maybe even HN.

I've completely dropped twitter/facebook/etc, but have found that I keep coming back to HN and reddit primarily to keep some level of awareness of things that happen outside of my "bubble".

How would you maintain that level of awareness while still dropping those social media platforms?
