A batch of the best highlights from what Josh's read, .
Timestamps produced by a vector clock take the most amount of space compared to other well-known clock designs. The space complexity is O(n). A vector timestamp tracks the id of a node and the last known event id from that node. Therefore, if there are n nodes in the system, the timestamp would be an n-tuple.

Surely (no one/everyone) will (recognize how flexible and useful this architecture is/spend a huge amount of effort painstakingly preserving and updating this garbage I wrote in 20 minutes)
A great framework for delegating work or encouraging a team member to identify and own new work:
Challenge people to operate at the next level and promise support for them taking on that challenge.
Example: someone says that they are identifying a problem that is a bit of a stretch for them to carve out or solve.
You can identify it as a challenge for them and offer it to them _as a challenge_ that they can accept.
And you should communicate that you will _support_ them taking on that challenge (and how you'll support them).
