In this video we learn how Kafka Streams Consumers behave differently from regular Kafka Consumers, the consequences for the application, as well as steps to minimise downtimes in event processing when consumer group members change.
With a single config change, reduce rebalance downtime for your stateless Kafka Streams Apps from 45s to <100ms!

#QuickTip from a #copyeditor:
Apostrophes can cause no end of drama.

A #QuickTip since I didn't know this until I stumbled upon it just now... You can select any tab in #Firefox by holding down the CTRL/CMD key and then close them all at once by pressing CTRL/CMD-w, it should also work to move all to a new window, new container or send to a device!

Apostrophes can cause no end of drama.
In a nutshell: Apostrophes indicate contractions or ownership - NEVER a plural.
Its = belonging to it.
It’s = it is.

Are you using the right #dash?
Dashes are incredibly important in fiction, but there's more than one kind of dash – all with different lengths, different uses, and different rules governing their use.
Check out my blog post for the skinny on dashes!

Do you use The Royal Order of Adjectives?

#QuickTip from a #copyeditor:
Inconsistency can throw a reader straight out of the story, reducing their enjoyment and spoiling their experience.
Your locations, your characters, and your references should be consistent throughout your manuscript. Your fictional city can't be in a forest in Ch 4 and have open skies in Ch 18 (wouldn't the trees block the sky?).
A #StyleSheet can help, keeping track of the details...

#quicktip #flipboard users. If you hit a #paywall on your feed a lot of times it can be subverted by switching to reader view.
#QuickTip from a #Copyeditor:
The length and structure of your sentences can control the pace of your story and evoke emotion in your reader.
For example, to increase tension, treat your sentences like flashes of light in a dark room.
'Wide eyes scanned the darkness. A glimmer of light. A window? An escape!'

#QuickTip from a #Copyeditor:
Body parts function in specific ways, and you can assume your readers know how the body works – hands clap, feet (or legs) kick, shoulders shrug, and so on. You can't nod with your hands, you can't kick with your arms.
With that in mind, 'He rose to his feet, the note in his hands' would be better as 'He stood, clutching the note'.
Have you checked your writing for unnecessary body parts?

#QuickTip from a #copyeditor:
Be aware of redundant or unnecessary words that clutter your writing. For example:
'John woke up with a start'
Woke/wake means to stop sleeping (among other things!) so the 'up' is redundant.
'I pushed the red button down'
Activating a button always makes it go down/in, meaning 'down' is unnecessary.

Quick tip for Visual Studio Code users. VSCode defaults to the folder name in the window title, but you can override this using `window.title` in your settings.
